Except that Ada.Calendar.Month returns a number in the range of 1 to 12,
while 'POS and 'VAL for type months works on values in the range of 0 to 11.

So, you would have to do something like the following:

  Month_Name : Months := Months'Val(Ada.Calendar.Month(Time_Value) - 1);

But that would probably cause CONSTRAINT_ERROR in January, so you end up
with:

  Month_Name : Months := Months'Val(natural(Ada.Calendar.Month(Time_Value))
- 1);
