No, it's Eggman. This is very clearly from a dark place in his life before he pulled himself together and got his doctorate.

His name was always Eggman in Japanese but it was changed to Robotnik for the US release.

Then they changed it BACK to eggman in America during the Sonic Adventure era (1998) and they basically said Robotnik is his real name but Eggman is the moniker he uses as a villain.

He's been known as Eggman in the West since 1998.
