Same battle - both times.
The Confederates tended to name their battles after the nearest town or village (Manassas).
The Union tended to name them after rivers or streams (Bull Run).

∙ 13y agoThe practice of the Union commanders was to name the battles after nearby bodies of water or other landmarks. The Confederates usually named battles for the nearest town. This was not always the case but when you see a battle named for a creek or river it is a good bet its name is the Unions version. An example would be Antietam Creek as opposed to the Southern Sharpsburg. It is the same battle.
Of course there are battles that are named the same by both sides such as Gettysburg and Chancellorsville.
