I may be American, but I use YYYYMMDD whenever I generate a backup folder.
It makes it so easy to sort the directories, regardless of whether the other 
internal dates have been changed or not.

Tut, tut, Bill. Only in the Excited States of America is the date
month-day-year. Everywhere else it is either year-month-day or
day-month-year, except again in Canada when it can be any of the above
and gives everyone indigestion.
