Hello,
This is fairly straightforward, but is very easy to confuse as well.

These are not atom types. These are atom names, and as such act
simply as labels for Leap. Each of these atom names have associated
with them an atom type, and it's the atom type that is given
characteristics (i.e. SP2, SP3, etc.). You can find the atom types
corresponding to these atom names in the OFF library file associated
with ff99SB (namely, all_amino94.lib in $AMBERHOME/dat/leap/lib/). CG
has type CT, which is the same atom type as CA (and as such is SP3).
CD is type C, and is SP2. Atoms OE1 and OE2 are (and should be) the
same, but they need different names to distinguish them. Thus, they
are both type O2, which you should be able to find attributes for.

If this CG is really an atom type, then this is merely a coincidence
and has nothing to do with the CG defined in your GLU residue.

I hope this helps to clarify some of your confusing.
Good luck, and happy holidays to all!
