Many Civil War battles have two names because the Confederates would name the battlefield and hence the batte after the nearest town or landmark whilst the Union would name after the nearest stream or body of water. Therefore the South would use the word Manassas (a small town in Northern Virginia) and the Union Bull Run (the stream that ran near Manassas) to denote the same battle. Other examples include Antietam (Union) and Sharpsburg (CSA), and Shiloh(CSA) and Pittsburgh Landing (Union)
The North and the South sometimes named their battles differently. The North tended to name them after the nearest river, and the South after the nearest town.
The Battle of Bull Run & Chickamauga
There were over 237 battles fought throughout most of the civil war. The two states with the most battles were Mississippi and South Carolina.
Two major battle in the South during the Civil War include the Battle of Chickamauga and the Battle of Stones River.
The five costliest battles of the Civil War were The Battle of Gettysburg, Battle of Chickamauga Battle of Chancellorsville , Battle of Spotsylvania and Battle of Antietam. All but the last two occurred in 1863.
They argued over what to make the name.

Battle of Bunker Hill
The ten biggest battles of the US Civil war were The Battles of Bull Run, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, Chattenooga, Cold Harbor, Petersburg. (There were two major battles at Bull Run.)
Virginia and Tennessee were the two states that had the most Civil War battles fought in them. Virginia had 122 battles while Tennessee had 38 battles.
Battle of Sharpsburg, most Civil War Battles had two names one by the North and one by the South. The south called them by the towns near by. The north named battles for the closest body of water.

Opposing sides typically have different names for wars, battles, and such. For example, the American Civil War was often known as the War of Northern Aggression by Southerners, they had different ways of naming battles. Sometimes, it has to do with political ideology. The Finns saw their fight against the Soviet Union as a continuation of the Winter War they had previously fought against the Soviets, whereas the Soviets considered it just another front of the Great Patriotic War (their name for the Second World War).
