They even lampshade that in Sonic Generations.

Modern Eggman: "You're not in a position to demand anything, you nasty little pincushion!"
Modern Tails: "Eggman! How?"
Classic Eggman: "He had a little help."
Classic Tails: "Dr. Robotnik!"
Classic Eggman: "Oh, nobody calls me that anymore."

"Please, don't call me by my name. I will exclusively be referred to by a rude nickname given to me by my mortal enemy. I talked to the future version of myself and we both agree it's the way better name." ??????

I dream of one day buying Sega and declaring that the series will now officially be following a new canon taking place on Mobius which is threatened by Dr. Robotnik.

And yeah.. at this point the only reason the Eggman name is so prominent is because of Sega's contempt for any western element of the canon.
