Why does he use this name?

I believe this is in Episode V, "Empire Strikes Back," and if so I remember the instances you are talking about (watched "ESB" way too much...or not enough). I've always thought it was just his English accent. The original "Star Wars" trilogy is full of rushed and unclear dialogue (I thought Han Solo was saying "Boat attack" instead of "Boba Fett" in "ROTJ" for years) and dual pronunciations (Leia/Lee-a).
If you turn on your CC you'll see C3PO is in fact saying "Captain Solo". I thought he was saying "Turner" also, that's why I googled it. Once you watch it with CC on you'll hear it correctly.
