Google Maps renames Gulf of Mexico in the US, rest of the world gets tweaked name too

If you're a Google Maps user, you're about to see a major name change next time you open the app and scroll down to the south of North America. Google Maps has renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America for those using the service from the United States. The change has been in the works for the last couple of weeks since President Donald Trump announced his intention to rename it during his first week back in office.
