The first month in 1 Esdras is likely referring to the month of Nisan, which corresponds to March-April in the modern calendar. Nisan is the first month of the religious calendar in Judaism and marks the beginning of the new year.
The month of March is named after Mars, the ancient Roman god of war. He was also considered a guardian of agriculture and fertility.
Easter falls in the month of March or April, depending on the year. It is calculated based on the lunar calendar, falling on the first Sunday after the first full moon that occurs on or after the spring equinox.
An important duty for followers of Islam during the month of Ramadan is fasting from dawn until sunset. This includes abstaining from food, drink, smoking, and intimate relations during daylight hours as an act of self-discipline, spiritual reflection, and submission to God.
Muslims can eat before the Fajr prayer (dawn) and after the Maghrib prayer (sunset) during the fasting month of Ramadan. This means that the pre-dawn meal (suhoor) should be consumed before Fajr prayer time, and the evening meal (iftar) is eaten after the Maghrib prayer at sunset.

The actual name of the month is 'Nisan'. Aviv is the Hebrew word for the season of Spring.
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)

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.
Some scholars have dated the start of the Exodus out of Egypt to Passover, Abib 1446 BC. The plagues would have occurred shortly before and up to this month.
