hobbies and interests roleplaying gamesAre Dr Eggman and Dr Robotnik the same person?
9 Answers. They are different names for the same character. "Robotnik" is the character's real name while "Eggman" is a "common name taken after his shape." In various iterations of the franchise, they've chosen different names for him, with Robotnik being more of the English name, and Eggman the Japanese.
Moreover, why is Dr Robotnik now called Eggman?
Game Informer recently found out the answer to this when they asked Sonic Team head Takashi Iizuka. Here's Iizuka's explanation for the name change: “When the game was originally developed in Japan, they called the character Eggman. To us, he's Eggman, but in the rest of the world he's called Robotnik.
Keeping this in view, why is Dr Robotnik evil?
