But Mexico argues the U.S. cannot legally change the Gulf's name because the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea dictates that an individual country's sovereign territory only extends up to 12 nautical miles out from the coastline.

Google will also rename Denali to Mount McKinley. They are just waiting for the changes to officially appear on the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
