Original Note:
Common academic sources like Encyclopedia Britannica have noted that the U.S. has an unclear claim to renaming the Gulf’s over 400-year standing name and won’t be changing their entries. https://x.com/britannica/status/1889723591949795671?s=46&t=m7hNDGJs-LgqNQ0tpGoQRw The Gulf is also not named after the modern state of Mexico to begin with. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/gulf-of-mexico-rename-trump-b2697169.html
