Why? Google does this everywhere because naming is completely arbitrary and it makes sense to be up to date with current nomenclature. Poland changed name of Kaliningrad (Russian exclave that we border) to Królewiec (what it was called when it was part of Poland) in a similar manner to troll Russians and Google updated our maps as well. Apple didn’t in either case so you have options.

Weird, google maps still shows it as Kaliningrad, along with the Cyrillic spelling.
It’s local, same as Gulf of America which is still Gulf of Mexico for me because that’s the official name here.
The Cyrillic still is Kaliningrad lol
They get away with it because we never bothered to learn those moon runes.
iirc it was not just to troll rusians, it was because it was found kalinin was a murderous psycho killing a lot of poles for the red army.
You underestimate our need to troll Russians.
