You will have to write your own algorithm - in SQL or code...
There is nothing built-in

You should be converting them to words, by checking their range of size. Read the number, and convert it to a user-friendly string.

This[^] one blog post has the source code for a simple application to get the numeric data, and convert it to its representative string, spanning upto "million" of size. It would be helpfull for you for understanding the conversion process and steps.
