The update: Google Maps will now show "Gulf of America" instead of "Gulf of Mexico" for users in the US due to a recent executive order by President Trump. Additionally, the name "Denali" will be changed back to "Mount McKinley," pending an official update in the Geographic Names System.
Worldwide influence: The displayed names will differ depending on the user's location. Users in Mexico will still see "Gulf of Mexico," whereas international users will have access to both names. This adjustment aligns with Google's approach of presenting location-specific names for areas in dispute.
