Hi guys,

I'm contemplating the idea of having a custom radiator plate made, and the text I'm thinking of will include a date, which must be in American format. There's something I'm not sure about, though. Which of the following formats is correct? Or, if both are correct, then which one would sound more natural to an American native?

a) July 15, 2020
b) July 15th, 2020 (with "th" in superscript)
c) None of the above (in which case, what would you suggest?)

Thank you.

Just for reference for the "th" would be:
15th of July, 2020

I work for big Pharma, which is heavily FDA and Health Authority regulated. In order to avoid confusion on a date/timestamp, the format we use would be for example 28Oct2021. A confusing one would be 11/5/2021. In which case is it November 5th or May 11th?

I think he’ll be safe considering there aren’t 15 months in a year 🤣
