Nope, You broke it. Robotnik is his given name. Eggman is the insult name Sonic gives him that sticks.

That happened to come about during the Adventure games, before then, Eggman was the name used by Japan, while he was called Robotnik in western media!
To the first generation of (English speaking) fans, it's "Robotnik". The Japanese version used "Eggman", which is why, it was retconned as an "insult", if I remember rightly.
The latter.Specifically, Sonic Adventure established Eggman as a nickname in English, and either that game or Sonic Adventure 2 established Robotnik as his family name in Japanese.
I wonder if this is indicative of Shockwave being more minor in Earthspark, similar to how Cyberverse Blurr didn't rate a new mold.
Would you mind terribly adding this to the Stream Taxonomy thread? I think it makes for some more circumstantial evidence to keep us all guessing.
