    As far as I can tell, none of them are actually doing it right? The presidential order to rename the Gulf of Mexico was just for the portion of it that’s considered part of the US. The rest of it is still supposed to be called the Gulf of Mexico.

    rename as the “Gulf of America” the U.S. Continental Shelf area bounded on the northeast, north, and northwest by the States of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida and extending to the seaward boundary with Mexico and Cuba in the area formerly named as the Gulf of Mexico
