CE=Common Era, AD=After Death BCE=Before Common Era So I think AD came first.

AD is initials for the latin "anno domine", referring to "after Christ"

AD came first. A non-christian group initiated the use of bce centuries later. BC means Before Christ.

It's just like B.C. and B.C.E. neither one comes first, A.D. and C.E. are the same thing C.E. is just more respectful to non-Christians.
