It's complicated. 'Jyogetsu' is the correct reading of the kanji of her name (如月) , but the month used to be referred to by the archaic name Kisaragi (derived from 衣更着, kinusaragi, 'change clothes') so that's the common reading as it was the 'proper' word for the month of February.

Modern Japanese uses nigatsu, 二月, for February.
