Ha! I was just about to say exactly that myself!

Except, to get just the month (and leaving out optional arguments to mktime()), you
would need:
date('F', mktime(12, 0, 0, $month));
Also note I've specified 12:00, as opposed to 01:00, just to make sure you're well
clear of any possible daylight-savings timeshifts!
Cheers!
