How to show month name instead of show month digit

Question

In my current month variable have = 2019-12 in

<p class="col-md-1"><?php echo $cm['month']; ?></p>

I want to show DEC 2019

Have a look [in the manual about date](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php) to see how you can format the date. — M. Eriksson, Dec 10 '19 at 09:16

Use M Y in date() for the format, and strtotime for input date

echo date("M Y", strtotime('2019-12'));

You can use date() function in php

<?php
$date = "2019-12";

echo date("M Y", strtotime($date)); // Output : Dec 2019

?>

@MagnusEriksson thanks for comment but here $date is just a variable for assumed date. – Aman Kumar Dec 10 '19 at 09:23
