How would a Lunar Calendar be set up with 2 moons?

+0
−0

So I have a super-Earth that has 2 moons. Moon 1 is a bit smaller than our moon, and has an orbital period of 19.25 earth days. Moon 2 is larger than our moon and has an orbital period of 147.15 days. A year on the planet itself is about 708.5 days (similar to Mars, actually) if it helps. I was thinking a lunar calendar would be easiest, but I'm not sure entirely on how to set it up. Would it follow the first moon or the second moon? How long would the weeks/months be? I've been entertaining a few ideas, but I'm not sure what would make sense, so I'm hoping you guys could help.

If I've missed anything, or if this isnt the right place for this question, please let me know :)
