I'll lift a comment I posted elsewhere on the topic of the name.
From a 9to5mac article on the topic:
Typical of 9to5mac "reporting." The Golden Gate is a natural landmark, it's the strait between San Francisco and Marin which the famous bridge spans. Nowhere in the OS release even says the word bridge.
Fun fact. While it might seem safe to assume the "gold" in Golden Gate refers to the gold discovery about 100 miles upriver that started the California gold rush, it was in fact named the Golden Gate prior to the gold discovery. John C. Fremont (my favorite early Californian) named it such because of the color of the hillsides when he first arrived.
