You need to first parse it as a date object.


 const x =  "2021-09-08T17:00:00.000Z"
 const y = new Date(x)

then you can use the date methods.


console.log(y.toLocaleString("en-us", { month: "long", year: "numeric" }));

outputs: September 2021

You can edit your code as follows

var x = "2021-09-08T17:00:00.000Z"

var monthYear = new Date(x).toLocaleString('en-us', {
  month: 'long',
  year: 'numeric'
})

console.log(monthYear)

You can easily achieve this result using getMonth() and getFullYear() method of Date object

const x = "2021-09-08T17:00:00.000Z";

const monthNames = [
  "January",
  "February",
  "March",
  "April",
  "May",
  "June",
  "July",
  "August",
  "September",
  "October",
  "November",
  "December",
];

const date = new Date(x);
const result = `${monthNames[date.getMonth()]} ${date.getFullYear()}`;
console.log(result);
