All the way up until the release of TPM the hardcore movies-only fandom disagreed strongly with the EU fandom over whether the Emperor's name actually was "Palpatine" or whether it was unknown, possibly unknown in-universe

The prequels making it clear that, yes, Palpatine was just his personal name and he ruled openly under it without there being any big secret was technically a retcon in the eyes of said movies-only fans

IIRC it's in the novelization of the original SW, the one he actually wrote, which I had as a kid. It's in a short prologue page that sets the stage (also indicates he was a weak politician influenced by corrupt advisors, so definitely before he hashed the mastermind stuff out)

Yeah was gonna say I grew up in the 80s and 90s knowing the Emperor's name was Palpatine long before the prequels but that was because I was an ubernerd
