The Trump administration has officially implemented name changes for Alaska's Mount Denali and the Gulf of Mexico, as requested by the new president.

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.

Google said it would follow the Trump administration in renaming the Gulf of Mexico once the new name is updated in government sources.

President Donald Trump drew a mixed frenzy of eyebrow raises and excitement when he made a bold promise to rename the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America” in early January. He doubled-down on the promise during his inauguration speech this week,

Google will show Gulf of Mexico as "Gulf of America" and Alaska's Denali as "Mount McKinley" in the United States once the U.S. government has officially updated to the U.S. Geographic Names Information System.

One of US president Donald Trump’s first actions upon returning to power was ordering the Gulf of Mexico to be renamed. But mapmakers are still largely waiting for the green light.

The Department of the Interior says they're moving quickly to implement President Donald Trump's executive order to rename Mount Denali and the Gulf of Mexico.

"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.

The state of Alaska requested the name change in 1975, but the Board on Geographic Names didn’t take action. Members of the Ohio congressional delegation – President William McKinley was from Ohio – objected over many years to requests to rename the mountain, and the board did not act on those requests.

Google announced that it would be referring to the "Gulf of Mexico" as "Gulf of America" after Trump signed an executive order changing the name. The search engine behemoth says the change follows its practice of changing names of places when they have been updated by official government sources.

Google Maps has announced it will update its platform to reflect President Trump’s decision to rename two iconic geographic features — the Gulf of Mexico and Mount Denali. The pair will soon appear on the platform as the “Gulf of America” and “Mount McKinley,” respectively.
