Google Maps to rename Gulf of Mexico as Gulf of America in US

Google has announced that it will update its Google Maps service to reflect changes in official government naming conventions for two locations in the United States: the Gulf of Mexico and Denali, formerly known as Mount McKinley. According to Google, it has a longstanding practice of applying name changes to its maps when they have been updated in official government sources. This means that if President Trump's pledge to rename these locations is made official, Google Maps will display the new names, "Gulf of America" for the Gulf of Mexico and "Mount McKinley" for Denali. The company noted that it will only make changes when the government updates its official listings for these locations.
