Rajab and Sha'baan dua

Q: Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) made this dua from Rajab. Allahumma baarik lana fee rajab wa shabaan wa ballighnaa ramadaan. When the month of shabaan commenced did he drop of the word rajab and only mentioned shaabaan? If not, will it be better to stick to the actual words of the hadith or recite only shabaan as many people are doing including imaams of musjids?

A: I have not come across this.

Generally we recite the entire du`aa.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
