Best Answer

Here are two:1. It came before the Second Battle of Bull Run.

2. Until the Second Battle of Bull Run, it was just "the Battle of Bull Run".


And a bonus that's not totally ridiculous:

The Confederacy named battles after nearby towns or farms, so they called it "Manassas" (or "First Manassas", after there was a Second Manassas). The Union tended to name battles after creeks, rivers, or bodies of water that played a part in the fighting, so they called it "Bull Run" after the Occoquan River, which was also called "Bull Run Creek" because it originated in the nearby Bull Run Mountains.
