Sonic Generations handled it perfectly. Eggman is some shit they gaslit him into calling himself

I'm personally fine with both names, and I'm totally onboard with the official canon that "Robotnik" is his real name, and that "Eggman" started as an insult that Sonic used against him, but which he ultimately embraced and made into his supervillain alias. I personally headcanon that the separation of "Robotnik" and "Eggman" affords him a degree of plausible deniability that he uses to set up corporations in Robotnik's name that secretly fund and supply Eggman's world conquest schemes.

There is no amount of bloodshed that would be too much when the cause is as righteous as this one.

Nah, one of their best, especially when you know the context and reasoning behind the song.

I prefer robotnik personally. And Though most other media prefer eggmen the movies seems to alternate between the two for some reason.

Eggman sounds stupid, like they just changed his name because his body was generally egg shaped, while Dr. Robotnik was a clever name that implied he made robots but also sounds like a comical mad scientist name.

So team Robotnik 100%

eggman. Time to move on from the 90s

The 90s version of the character sucks compared to the modern version.

Yeah, Robotnik all the way, as his "real name" at least.

Robotnik may be a silly and generic name for a villain.

But Eggman sounds more like a silly and generic insult.

Sonic calling him Eggman is completly fine.

I like both. I used to like Eggman less, but as time goes on, Robotnik sounds more outdated.

I grew up calling him Robotnik but hes been Eggman so long at this point that its primarily what I say.

His last name is still canonically Robotnik so neither is really wrong

I only like Dr. Eggman cause I had a supervisor I called that. He looked kinda like robotinik but Eggman was funnier since it's describing his body shape.

I always thought it was Dr Robotnik but sonic used Eggman as an insult. But my sonic knowledge is basically the genesis games and a bit of the cartoon as a kid.

Eggman makes more sense since he's shaped like an egg, and created the Death Egg (an egg shaped parody of the Death Star). The egg motif, is like, his whole thing.
