Equivalence in no way specifies order. Both are entirely valid representations of the same fundmental idea.
This is the key part behind the commutative property in algebra. You can know the rule without knowing what it really means, but that means that ideas like this can falsely seem powerful.

Well, it is all the same but I would totally go with E=mc² because it would confuse me the other way ;)

Both are true. They are the same equation.

Either way - but it is typically described in the first way. Energy=mass x speed of light (squared).

Both. If you look REALLY carefully, they say the SAME thing!!! They are just flipped around the equal sign

Both the same as stated above. It is also true that;
m = E/c2 and c2 = E/m.

You just flipped them around so they are still the same thing.

Even more amazing: c = the speed of light = â(E/m)
