Remarks

The "MonthName" service retrieves the cultural specific name for a given month. The Month parameter must be an integer between 1 and 12. The value returned depends on two factors: NameLength and Locale. NameLength can be on of two options: "Full" returns the full name and "Abbreviated" returns the commonly used abbreviation. Locale is the locale name used to target a specific language.

Here is a sample of possible return values if the Month is set to 4. The top row is the Locale value and the left column is the NameLength value:
