Both the labels and the order are derived from levels(y), where y is
the categorical variable in your boxplot. You can specify both when
you create a factor explicitly; see ?factor. (Also see
?reorder.factor, although I doubt that's what you want).

You can also change the labels in the bwplot call using xlim or ylim; e.g.,

bwplot(voice.part ~ height, data=singer, ylim = month.name[1:8])
