I'd second the notion of changing the villain's name back to Robotnik. It just sounds better and is more threatening. Eggman sounds goofy and of little threat.
King Koopa/Bowser never bothered me because they were pretty interchangeable for a long time, with his name being Bowser in the games (even in SMB1, IIRC) and King Koopa in the cartoons and movie, though he had King of the Koopas as his title in the games.
The Peach/Toadstool thing still takes some effort, but since both names are used in M64, we can assume it's either her full name or title like with Bowser. Either way, Peach at least sounds more Princess like, so even if it were permanent, it'd be an improvement.
But, AFAIK, there's no official mixing of both Robotnik and Eggman as the same name for the character (or one being a title, one being a nickname, etc), and Eggman, again, is definitely not an improvement.
