Medically it is called an inevitable abortion as abortion is the term used for any cessation of pregnancy before the baby is viable (able to live on its own). However most people would say that this is a miscarriage and if the baby is not 'miscarried' in a few days the woman would have to have a D & C to remove it as it can cause severe and even fatal infections.

I believe that fetal fingerprints are fully formed by 12 weeks/3months of gestation. Fingerprints are actually created by fetal movements - as the young fetus moves within the uterus, its skin shifts, forming the ridges of its fingerprints. This is the reason why no two people have the same fingerprints, even identical twins.
