PYTHON (Plotly) - Renaming axis ticks

Question

I have a line graph which I have done with matplotlib from this dataframe called lineFGDF:

The code I used is:

fig, ax2 = plt.subplots(figsize=(15, 10))
x = lineFDF[threeYr]
x.plot(kind='line', marker='',color='#0c1e3c')
plt.grid(color='#e5e0e0', linestyle=':', linewidth=0.8)

It produces this:

Which is great and I can see the Months on the X axis. However, I want to do it with Plotly so I can make it interactive.

So I found a way of doing it in Plotly, but the months have gone and have been replaced with numbers. How do I get the month labels back?

This is the code:

random_x = lineFDF[threeYr]
trace0 = go.Scatter(
    y = random_x,
    mode = 'lines',
    name = 'lines'
)
data = [trace0]
plotly.offline.iplot(data, filename='line-mode')

Which produces this:

Specify X in your trace0. Set X to be equal to the the months you would like to see.

trace0 = go.Scatter(
    x = ['jan','feb','ma','ap','may','jun'],
    y = [1,2,3,4,5,6],
    mode = 'lines',
    name = 'lines'
)

results in this graph.
