grammar question

I have a quick grammar question because my knowledge of Latin is far from conversational. Which of the following version quote is grammatically correct? I have seen it written both ways:

Legio nomen mihi est, quia multi sumus

-or-

Nomen mihi Legio est, quia multi sumus.
 
 

Matthaeus

Vemortuicida strenuus

  • Civis Illustris

  • Patronus

Location:
Varsovia
Both are correct; word order is free.
 

Nikolaos

schmikolaos

  • Censor

Location:
Kitami, Hokkaido, Japan
The first way is how it's written in the Clementine Vulgate... I don't know about other Latin translations.
