No reinforcements were used by Union forces, thinking they weren't needed.
The North had thought, going into the Civil War, that victory would be relatively easy to achieve. According to the History Channel, the outcome of the battle (a victory for the South) "sent northerners--who had expected a quick, decisive victory--reeling."

That would be the Carolingian dynasty. "Carolingian" is a word stemming from medieval Latin, "karolingi," meaning "descendant of Charles." ("Carol" and "Charles" are essentially the same name in different languages.) So those who came after Charles Martel in his family line get the name "Carolingian."
By the way, Charles "Martel" is Charles plus his nickname -- Carolus Martellus (in Latin) means "Charles The Hammer." Think of it like a wrestlers' nickname, but here we're talking a strong warrior who rose to power by winning battles.
Charlemagne, the most famous member of the Carolingian dynasty, is "Carolus Magnus" (in Latin) or "Charles the Great." Personally, I like to call him "Big Chuckie" ... but I think I'm the only one who refers to him that way. ;-)
