Converting Month Day, Year String to Datetime Object

[cacikmagic]

Hello. I need to convert a date string in the format 'June 3, 2024' into a datetime object. I'm unsure about the correct format specifiers and necessary settings to achieve this. For instance, what should I use as the datetime separator, and which format settings are truly essential?
