The most convincing explanation is that it comes from the American habit of saying May 5th 1970 instead of the British 5th of May 1970. American English tends to minimise the number of words ('enjoy'). The spoken probably got copied to the written.

When you create a SimpleDateFormat object, you specify a pattern String. The contents of the pattern String determine the format of the date and time. For a full description of the pattern's syntax, see the tables in Date Format Pattern Syntax.The following code formats a date and time according to the pattern String passed to the SimpleDateFormat constructor. The String returned by the format method contains the formatted date and time that are to be displayed. Date today;String output;SimpleDateFormat formatter;formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(pattern, currentLocale);today = new Date();output = formatter.format(today);System.out.println(pattern + " " + output);The following table shows the output generated by the previous code example when the U.S. Locale is specified:Customized Date and Time FormatsPatternOutputdd.MM.yy30.06.09yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' hh:mm:ss z2009.06.30 AD at 08:29:36 PDTEEE, MMM d, ''yyTue, Jun 30, '09h:mm a8:29 PMH:mm8:29H:mm:ss:SSS8:28:36:249K:mm a,z8:29 AM,PDTyyyy.MMMMM.dd GGG hh:mm aaa2009.June.30 AD 08:29 AM source:http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/i18n/format/simpleDateFormat.html

When someone asks for a date of birth (mmddyyyy), that means they want the date as the two-digit month, followed by the two-digit day, followed by the four-digit year with no spaces or punctuation in between. For example, February 3, 1999 in the form mmddyyyy would be 02031999.
The countries in which Horlicks is distributed, such as the United Kingdom, tend to use the ddmmyyyy format. It stands to reason that the expiration dates of Horlicks labels use the ddmmyyyy format.

The answer depends on how the date is written: ddmmyy or ddmmyyyy or mmddyy or mmddyyyy
To write a date in roman numerals, you must convert the month into its numeric equivalent (January = 1, February = 2...October = 10 etc.) Then you must decide which date format to use: MMDDYYYY or MMDDYY or DDMMYY or DDMMYYYY etc. I believe it is common to follow the MMDDYYYY format. When separating each number group, you can use either a space, a dash or a period. Therefore, the date January 14, 2010 could look like I.XIV.MMX. Another way of representing the date so that there is no confusion between the month and the day is to show the month in latin: JANUARIUS, FEBRUARIUS, MARTIUS, APRILIS, MAIUS, JUNIUS, JULIUS, AUGUSTUS, SEPTEMBER, OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, DECEMBER. If you want to be as authentic as possible, Romans did not have the 'J' or 'U' in their alphabet so the months would look like: IANVARIVS, FEBRVARIVS, MARTIVS, APRILIS, MAIVS, IVNIVS, IVLIVS, AVGVSTVS, SEPTEMBER, OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, DECEMBER. The months can be shown in either upper- or lowercase. The months can be abbreviated to three letters followed by a stop, except for MART. and SEPT. In this format, January 14, 2010 could look like IAN.XIV.MMX or XIV.ian.MMX etc.
Two digit month as in 01 for January 12 for December. Two digit day as in 01 to 31. And four digit year as in 2012. So today's date would be 08192012
