The OSM Community discusses the Trump Administration's renaming of "The Gulf of Mexico" to "The Gulf of America"

Different situation, I'd say. You get a say how your own countries, cities, etc get named. No one is forced to accept it, but it's a matter of international respect to do so.
You don't get to rename a geographic feature. Much less one that's outside your borders.
