Abib is not a Jewish month. It is the Hebrew word for the season of spring.
It is the seventh month of the Jewish year, equivalent to Nisan of the modern Jewish calendar. As the Jewish calendar is different in length to the Gregorian calendar, there is not a directly corresponding month.
The first month of the jewish ecclesiastical year, formerly answering nearly to the month of April, now to March, of the Christian calendar. See Abib.
Abib is the name of the first month of "God's year." It means: "to come out... or to be tender; green, like a young ear of grain." God's year begins in the "spring" when life begins anew... when the "early spring crops" begin to sprout. Literally, Abib is the "month of green ears." Sometimes spring is early... sometimes it's late... so, when the ears of the grain crops began to sprout, then did the people begin counting the days until the Passover. "Observe the month of Abib, and keep the Passover unto the Lord thy God: for in the month of Abib the Lord thy God 'brought thee forth' out of Egypt by night." (Deut.16:1)

The actual name of the month is 'Nisan'. Aviv is the Hebrew word for the season of Spring.
this year it starts on Feb. 24.
Aviv is also Abib, the first Jewish month in contrast to Babylon's Nisan. Every indication is that at Exodus Nisan and Abib was not the same. Nisan was in Pamenot (Julian March /Gregorian February) and Abib was the next lunar month (Julian April / Gregorian March). Many words in Hebrew are spelt both ways with a V or B like Avraham. The city of Tel Aviv is said to mean Mountain or hill of spring, though other sources say Aviv is not just spring, it is the barley ear of corn before it dries out.
It's actually pronounced Aviv, and it's spelled אביב It's not a Hebrew month; it's a season, translated as Spring.
