I grew up calling it Sparkles. My wife called it Stars. Anyone have any others?

Nobody ever talked to me about Sonic lore as a kid, so I never had a word for it. I was too busy playing Cyborg Justice and wishing I was good at it. That game pulled me in with the cool vibes then dashed me to bits with bad controls.
Cyborg Justice was great. I only learned recently that no, pits were not just a death sentence if you didn't have the pneumatic legs, you can transition out of a jump into a forward lunge to get the distance you need.
Pulling robot pieces off and attaching them to yourself was an amazing mechanic. Same as kicking legs back upright and slamming torsos on to resurrect enemies (and possibly allies?)
And the music is peak Genesis music.
