If you're not a fan of the recently renamed Gulf of America, you can call it whatever you want courtesy of MapQuest.

The online navigation company appears to be poking fun at President Donald Trump's executive order to rebrand the body of water bordering the nation's southern coast.

Trump's decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico has been met with mixed results. While some U.S. citizens who live in places like Florida have gladly welcomed the name change, others appear irked.

Among those unhappy with the rebranding? Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, who threatened legal action against Google again this week after the tech company changed the Gulf of Mexico's name for Google Maps users in the United States.
