    Note

    The calendar's shorthand, used where space is tight: invoices, date lines, schedules (Jan 12, late Jan). It belongs to the set of three-letter month abbreviations, alongside Feb and Mar. Because it is capitalized like the given names spelled the same way, context does the sorting. A number beside it, or a word like late or early, marks the month. January itself also serves, rarely, as a women's name.
