Nick,

I also think that the new long names are too "noise". Too many numbers. It's hard to read. Month is enough IMO even if we have two sprints for the same month.
I understand that we all can have different preferences. And what is hard to read for us may provide additional useful information for you or someone else.
This is why it's very important to discuss such changes first and got to agreement before changing it.

Can you just revert it for now then we can discuss it later?

I disagree.

Using the "main month in the sprint to give an idea" is a far less
useful piece of information than the actual start/end dates, which
give you the ACTUAL dates at a glance.

When sprints cross months, as most do, which month should be selected?
The start month? the end month? or the one that makes up the largest
percentage in the sprint?

If you feel it's too much information, just glance away.
