I copied this list from a website on the Jewish calendar. You can go to Google and get the rest of the information.
In my concordance Abib is equated with Nisan.
I hope this helps.

If anybody actually does all the research for this person just to get 10 points, you are crazy. Ever hear of google, asker of this question? How lazy can you be?
Anyway, to point you in the right direction, just look for stuff about the Hebrew calendar and Jewish Holidays. The Hebrew calendar doesn't coincide with the western calendar because it's lunar, not solar. Therefore, the months don't have "translations." They just are what they are. Because the two calendars don't match up, the Jewish Holidays are on different dates every year on the western calendar but the same dates on the Hebrew calendar.
Good luck.

"Aviv" means "spring", and it is a season, not a name of a month in Modern Hebrew (In the bible it is another name for the month "Nissan", which symbolizes the exodus and the beginning of the spring).
