His original Japanese name is Eggman, but Robotnik is a much more villainous sounding name IMO

Do I need to say it?
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Robotnik indeed. He contributes more trouble in brute force.

While I prefer Robotnik, I always called him "Egghead" when I was a kid.

His name is still Robotnik. Sonic just mockingly calls him Eggman. Both names are canon.

Eggman is his real name and is better. Robotnik is a retarded sounding name.

That's not entirely true. He's referred to himself as Eggman since SA2.

<Kojinka> When I saw this thread back on top, I was afraid this was gonna be another pointless bump by a new member, but when I saw Super-Jesse's username, my fears were laid to rest.

From what I played of Sonic Adventure DX Director's Cut, he seems to like both. Robotnikland! The Egg Carrier! Eggmanland sounds dumb, but the Egg Carrier rocks hard. I can't choose.

If his name were being announced by, say, the Brawl announcer... I'd expect to hear "Dr. Eggman." He is a pretty egg-like man, is he not?

Honestly, I use them interchangeably. Eggman is a nickname. Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik.
...also, the Robotnik Carrier sounds dumb.
No! I don't want that!

You kids and your "eggman". Back when Sonic was still awesome, we had Robotnik and WE WERE HAPPY.
