The Adventurers minifigs has different names around the World.
See http://www.geocities.com/EnchantedForest/Cottage/5900/WhoIsWho/index.html
For the two minifigs in question the following names apply:
"Scarface" | 1998 | 2000
========================================
International* | Mr.Hates | Sam Sanister@
North America# | Baron von Barron¤ | Sam Sinister
* International = Europe+Australiasia+Japan
# North America = USA+Canada+Mexico
@Alex Gluipstra in The Netherlands
¤Sometimes misspelled Baron von Baron

"Tophat" | 1998
======================
International* | Slyboots
North America# | Sam Sinister

I think the explanation for the "Sam Sanister" on the
box is that the sets are produced in Europe and then
shipped to USA.
