Change php date output language

I am using few variables to store different php dates in desired formats like following:

$today = date('Y-m-d');
$todayPretty = date('d. M');
$oneMonthBefore = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-1 months'));
$oneMonthBeforePretty = date('d. M', strtotime('-1 months'));
$oneMonthBefore2 = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($this->oneMonthBefore .' -1 day'));
$oneMonthBefore2Pretty = date('d. M', strtotime($this->oneMonthBefore .' -1 day'));
$twoMonthsBefore = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-2 months'));
$twoMonthsBeforePretty = date('d. M', strtotime('-2 months'));
$currentMonth = date('F');
$previousMonth = date('F', strtotime('-1 months'));

Unfortunately I need them in a different language like danish for example so I've set up the following with no results:

setlocale(LC_ALL, "da_DK.UTF-8");

I've read that I have to use strftime function but how I should approach this when it comes to the variables that doesn't use strtotime in my case? Any help or guidance is more than welcomed.
