Thread Subject: create a vector of months

I am trying to create of vector of months. Ex:

Jan
Feb
Mar
...

I started by creating a numerical representation of monrths 1:12, of the appropriate length using repmat:

 t = repmat(1:1:12,1,1200)';

From here it seems that I should be able to use datestr() to convert 1 to Jan, 2 to Feb, and so on. However, I seem to be at an impasse. Any ideas?

Months = 1:1:24
datestr(datenum(2000,Months,1),'mmm')
