Anyway, in SA1 He was "Ivo 'Eggman' Robotnik", Sonic uses that nickname to mock him, but people still feared it.
In SA2 they pull off Gerald and Maria, just to give some use to the familiar name, make a background for Shadow and for the game itself.
Now is just Eggman again, because Iizuka is a hack and can't into continuity. Fuck that guy. Naka was an asshole and some of his ideas were off (Shadow and 06, 06 is an unfinished mess because Naka took his people out), but at least he cared about continuity, Iizuka is just a plain imbecile.
