Iceliazrd actually describes the appearance and powers of Arctiguana so Icelizard does work for Arctiguana, just like Water Hazard can be called "Overflow". It's stupid that the people at CN would think that fans that watched Omniverse wouldn't recognise Water Hazard new hideous robotic look.

Maybe the redesign was why they renamed him?

Also other than being blue 'ice' as a theme is not very present in Arctiguana's design, so icelizard doesn't fit very well.
