>IT MAKES HIM SOUND MORE SERIOUS AND BADASS90s Eggman was a bombastic villain who dressed like a clown, went red in the face when defeated, had armies of robots that looked like Fisher-Price toys, giant mallets, checkered wrecking balls, inflatable decoys, and built a Death Star WITH HIS FACE ON IT.
That SatAM shit made kids think that the Eggman in the 2D games was the same dictator Julian with red eyes and a metal arm. Sega's American translators ignored JP Eggman's sense of fun and decided to make him an eeeeviilll 90s villain to promote an environmental message. The only American Sanic media that got his personality right was AoSTH.
"Eggman" is Ivo Robotnik's supervillain name. Much like Oswald Cobblepot goes by "The Penguin," or Leonard Snart goes by "Captain Cold," Ivo Robotnik's public appearances have him exclusively go by "Dr. Eggman." It's part of his villainous gimmick, and using his real name would ruin the "egg" theme he's going for.
