solution doesn't rely on symfony components (except locale):

    setlocale(lc_all, $this->request->getlocale());     $month = strftime("%b", mktime(0, 0, 0, $monthid, 1, 2000)); 

first, take @ official icu docs date formatting. icu underlying component intl (mentioned yann in comments above).

so, given variable $monthid contains number of month, do:

$monthid = .... $date = new \datetime();  # overwrite date first day in month $y = (int)$date->format('y'); $date->setdate($y, $monthid, 1);   # create formatter $fmt = new intldateformatter(     'en_us', // locale?     "llll", // <--- long month format     intldateformatter::full,     'america/los_angeles', // time zone, not important in case     intldateformatter::gregorian );  # format month $monthname = $fmt->format($date); 

hope helps...
