It came after President Donald Trump's executive order on his first day in office calling for the change and the Department of the Interior's adoption of the new name last month.

Under Trump's executive order, Google Maps has adopted "Gulf of America." Apple Maps is drawing mixed reactions for sticking with "Gulf of Mexico."

Google may face a lawsuit from Mexico over its decision to show both Gulf of Mexico and Gulf of America on its Google Maps platform.

Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo on Thursday threatened Google with a lawsuit to keep the name Gulf of Mexico on its maps application.

The Gulf of Mexico is now called the Gulf of America for Google Maps users in the United States, keeping with the terms of President Trump's controversial executive order to rename the body of water.

Apple Maps has renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America, after the Trump administration updated the U.S. database for geographic names to reflect the president’s order renaming the body of water.

Map users in the U.S. will see the new name, while users in other parts of the world will see both when looking at the waters bordering the southern U.S.
