Nope. It's just Toadstool. If you play the original game, there's no Peach at all. Even the Mario cartoons don't refer to her as peach. It's the same with Mario's age, Bowsers name and personality, Mario's white gloves etc. Nintendo likes to change characters as the years pass.

I still refer to her as Toadstool just like I do Dr. Robotnik from Sonic and Tails name. Miles? GTFO with that lol.

I didn't even know Robotnik's name had changed until a few months ago, when I picked up Sonic Mania.  He'll always be Robotnik to me.  

Yeah. Al Nilsen is the man behind that. Back when Sega of Japan was first conceiving the game and sending concept art to Set of America, then marketing guru Al Nilsen suggested (among many things) that they change the name from Eggman to Dr. Robotnik. He didn't think American kids would take to the name Eggman. He was right imo.
