Hi @FrederickFrance - apologies for the long delay here. This looks like a useful function, however it would be great if we can reuse the formatting infrastructure from https://github.com/chronotope/chrono/tree/main/src/format . Potentially these functions could be moved to that module, to sit alongside the FromStr impl for Weekday.

Then the function could then be implemented with format_item passing an Item::Fixed(Fixed::LongWeekdayName). The disadvantage here is that the function would allocate and return a String, but the advantage is that it opens up the possibility of passing or detecting a locale in a subsequent addition. Let me know your thoughts and if this would suit your use case?
