title: How to get short month names in Joda Time?
body: <p>Does anyone know if there's a method in Joda Time or Java itself which takes either an int or a String as an argument, e.g. 4 or "4" and gives the name of the month back in short format, i.e. JAN for January?</p>
  
  <p>I suppose long month names can be truncated and converted to upper case.</p>
