Stonewall Jackson, Union military leader during the Civil War. General Jackson's nickname is attributed to a moment at First Bull Run during which General Bee is reputed to have shouted, "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall. Let us determine to die here, and we will conquer. Follow me", or words to that effect.

General Thomas Jonathon Jackson. He was a general for the confederate army. He got his name from Gen. Barnard Elliott Bee, Jr., exhorted his own troops to re-form by shouting, "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall. Let us determine to die here, and we will conquer. Rally behind the Virginians!"
No. The one who died there was General Barnard Bee, who had shouted "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall!", thus coining his nickname. (Experts are divided over whether this observation was meant to be flattering or critical.) Stonewall died at Chancellorsville, regarded as the greatest victory of the Lee-Jackson partnership. A good way for a soldier to die, you might say - except that he was shot by his own men, whether accidentally or not is still debated.
He got his name "Stonewall" because his faith in God made him fearless in battle. At Bull Run, they seen thought they would all die, but he stood there fighting without fear. Some one said he was standing there like a stonewall. He was without fear. I know this because he is my Great Grandfather Xs 4. Though you are right about Jackson being a God fearing man and that he trusted God fully, What i understand was that when he was in the front line with his troops he was giving them encouragement and was holding hand up talking to them and he was shot through the hand and he didnt lower his hand. He stood there to finish his talk with his men and lower his hand, bleeding. His men were amazed by his grit and toughness and named him stonewall. He got the sobriquet "Stonewall" at the First Bull Run battle. As General Bernard Bee's troops were falling back, he saw Jackson's brigade in line of battle at the crest of a ridge, facing the enemy. He shouted, "There stands Jackson like a stone wall! Rally on the Virginians!" The nickname stuck.
