I'm still a newbie to the group, but I would reverse the last two naming elements, yielding the following: DateTime::Calendar::Liturgical::Christian
I suggest this because the existence of 'D:C:Christian' as a module and not as a directory would imply a relationship between the two, specifically that your module is a subset of the other. Since it clearly is not, and I presume the term 'Liturgical' is more generic than 'Christian' in this context, it makes sense to me to make it distinct while keeping the information intact. It also allows for liturgical calendars for other religions in a logical location. This to me also follows the same logic as the D:C:Fictional namespace.
