The lastDayOfMonth is a single date, therefore using lastDayOfMonth.weekDay gives a single day based on lastDayOfMonth. We can add duration on lastDayOfMonth and find day name.

 final currentDate =
           lastDayOfMonth.add(Duration(days: index + 1));

This will provide update date based on index. I am using intl package or create a map to get the day name.

A useful answer about date format.

 Row(
  children: List.generate(
    lastDayOfMonth.day,
    (index) => Padding(
      padding: const EdgeInsets.only(right: 24.0),
      child: Column(
        mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
        children: [
          Text(
            "${index + 1}",
          ),
          () {
            final currentDate =
                lastDayOfMonth.add(Duration(days: index + 1));

            final dateName =
                DateFormat('E').format(currentDate);
            return Text(dateName);
          }()
        ],
      ),
    ),
  ),
),
