Bloober is the correct name. They just randomly changed it to Blooper in the late N64 era for no reason.
That was a joke.

That's interesting. I' don't actually recall ever seeing an actual instruction manual to the original Super Mario Bros. I guess I must have lost it before I even learned how to read.

Wow, and it was still "Bloober" as late as Super Mario Bros. Deluxe!  I'm on a roll with these images...


Say, do you think "Blooper" is supposed to be a reference to The Bloop?

Robotnik is Better, but the times have changed, and what are we going to do about it?

For me, Eggman is just a nickname that Sonic and his pals call Robotnik, and it really annoys me when Robotnik refers to himself as Eggman.  Robotnik, in paraphrasing AoStH, hates that hedgehog.  Why would he adapt to a nickname that was given to him by the guy he hates?
Because Robotnik in AoStH and Robotnik in the Sonic games are two different people from two different universes. It could be said that Eggman is also his alias.

"Maria Eggman" just doesn't sound right. At all.

Which is why they refer to her as Maria Robotnik.

Yes, then they'll read the pathetic sales charts, think "Well, looks like gamers aren't interested in Sonic anymore," and then take Sonic games off the market completely.

Yes, and then we won't have to hear the name "Eggman" ever again!

You could, but you would have to study under Isaac Newton.

Studying over Isaac Newton is a different story. Then you fall on him and he comes up with another theory.

Since when is Sonic going off the market a bad thing? The series has highly gone downhill, aside from the Rush series.
Ditto used Machop!

That's a good point as well.  I'm selling Shadow the Hedgehog to make money for MKWii, and I hear Sonic '06 isn't exactly a masterpiece, either.   
Maybe they need to start calling Dr. Robotnik "Dr. Robotnik" again for luck.

eggman is almost like a name made to ridicule him yet robotnik still calls himself that

(by the way when I was typing this on the wii i found it funny that nintendo put eggman in their "guessing what word you are going to type in" dictionary, but they didn't put in Robotnik)
