General Barnard Bee, who was credited with giving T.J.Jackson his sobriquet 'Stonewall'.
There were two versions of what Bee meant by "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall." One was Bee praising Jackson for his stout defence of the position. The other was Bee criticizing him for not coming over to help.
Bee was mortally wounded and died soon after, so nobody had a chance to ask him which version was correct!

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.
