This should do the trick (after initialization):

var monthNames = ['Period1','Period2','Period3','Period4','Period5','Period6',
    'Period7','Period8','Period9','Period10','Period11','Period12'];

var monthNamesShort = ['Per1', 'Per2', 'Per3', 'Per4', 'Per5', 'Per6',
    'Per7', 'Per8', 'Per9', 'Per10', 'Per11', 'Per12'];

$(".date-picker").datepicker( "option", "monthNames", monthNames);

$(".date-picker").datepicker( "option", "monthNamesShort", monthNamesShort);

Note that you should set monthNamesShort, too. These properties can also be set during initialization.

$(".date-picker").datepicker({
    ..., 
    monthNames: ['Period1', ...], 
    monthNamesShort:['Per1', ...],
    ...
});
