In addition to the above, I suggest using the new classes from the java.time package, which appeared in Java 8, and not using the long-outdated java. util. Date

String dateString = "2015-05-15";
LocalDate date = LocalDate.parse(dateString, DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd"));
System.out.println(date.format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("dd MMMM yyyy", new Locale("ru"))));

Using SimpleDateFormat (to get" may " in Russian, you need, respectively, the locale). Example:

 String oldDateString = "2015-05-15";
 SimpleDateFormat oldDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd", Locale.getDefault());
 SimpleDateFormat newDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMMM yyyy", Locale.getDefault());

 Date date = oldDateFormat.parse(oldDateString);
 String result = newDateFormat.format(date);
