Time Intelligence in Local Language Only

Question

I have enabled "Time Intelligence" Functinon in PowerBI. It creates hittend table and hierarchy, based on time datetype. The problem is that even if PowerBI and Local date format is set to English, the values in that hierarchy, are still in my OS local language. Where can it be set?

I am working on most up to date PowerBI version. I have changed system date to UK. Date is displayed in the format:

01 January 2008

But Time Intelligence function (new function that creates hidden time dimension table based on date field), still have my local language not English. My PowerBI version is english one.
