Default converting numbers to months

There are many ways

1. If you have numbers in Col A starting at A1
enter this in B1
=Date(1,A1,1)
and format the column as
Custom|mmmm

This will show January, ... depending upon the number in A1

Or you can have
=LOOKUP(A1,{1,2,...12},{"January","February",..."" December"})

Fill the missing numbers, months

or
you can use VLOOLKUP
=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!A:B,2,False)

if you have numbers in Col A and month names in Col B of Sheet2

or...
