Google will rename the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska's Denali on its maps for users in the U.S. following President Trump's controversial executive order.

The change will only be visible to U.S. users. Those in Mexico will still see “Gulf of Mexico,” while those in the rest of the world will see both names on the map.

Google said the name changes, which also includes using Mount McKinley, will happen when Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is updated.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum rebuked Google’s decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico on Google Maps in a Wednesday press conference. After President Donald Trump issued an executive order changing the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America in all government references,

Google announced that it would be taking steps to change the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on Google Maps in the US on its Google Maps platform.

Google Maps said it would change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America once it is officially updated in the U.S. Geographic Names System.

"As directed by the President, the Gulf of Mexico will now officially be known as the Gulf of America," the Interior Department stated in a statement last week. Google responded by noting that the change complies with its longstanding policy of aligning map labeling with updates in official government databases.

Google Maps will change the name of "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America" once it is officially updated in the U.S. Geographic Names System, Google said in an X post on Monday.

President of Mexico Claudia Sheinbaum says her country is reaching out to Google about its Maps change and is suggesting additional revisions of its own.

Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum says Google made a mistake renaming the Gulf of Mexico on its Google Maps simply because U.S. President Donald Trump wanted it renamed "Gulf of America."

U.S. oil producer Chevron used the term "Gulf of America" instead of Gulf of Mexico in its fourth-quarter press release on Friday, a sign of corporate America beginning to implement U.S. President Donald Trump's order to rename the ocean basin.
