Can you provide a short example with numeric data, and explain how months are related to your numbers?

Sunny - assuming that there are 12 ticks on your x-axis, you could replace these numbers with strings as

 set(AX,'XTicklabel',{'Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','June','July', ...
     'August','Sept','Oct','Nov','Dec'}');

Note the use of AX which is returned from your call to plotyy. As well, note how the cell array of months is transposed (see the apostrophe after closing brace of this cell array of month strings).
