To be fair, CCG probably realizes he won't go by the name Sasaki anymore, but very few in the organization seem to know who he was beforehand. It makes sense to go with a psuedonym. Additionally, it seems to be pretty standard in the organization to use a monicker for a wanted target, and military-esque organizations take their titles (associate special class) very, very seriously. It also helps to dehumanize him, as a lot of CCG personnel have personal connections to him and so would find it difficult to hunt him down and slaughter him in the street like they do most ghouls. I think that's why it was Ui who was correcting others when they called him associate special class - Ui didn't like him much, but there was still a connection there, and it's painful to be betrayed even by someone you don't like. Much easier to focus on eliminating "wanted criminal HS" than "personal betrayer Haise Sasaki," at least until you're face-to-face.
