    Basically what @small_duck already posted, but a couple of improvements:

    SELECT to_char(to_timestamp (4::text, 'MM'), 'TMmon')

    • A plain cast to text 4::text is enough, no need for to_char(..).

    • Question asks for lower case “jan”, there is a template pattern for that: mon.

    • If you want to localize the output, prefix the template with the modifier TM.
