There isn't a rule for whether "lake" should be the first or last part of a lake's name. However, larger lakes tend to have "lake" first.

Is there a reason why the name of a lake sometimes appears in front of the name and others it appears behind it for instance Lake Tahoe vs Folsom Lake?
larger lakes tend to have the term lake before the name as opposed to smaller lakes which tend to house the word after the name... the dimensions of the lake really have no bearing on whether or not the lake is "big" or "small"... it's usually just a matter of perspective and most people just run with the names anyway...
