Donald Trump said at a campaign event in South Carolina that he called Google CEO Sundar Pichai to ask whether Google Maps could "help him" rename the Atlantic Ocean, and that Pichai refused. According to his account, Pichai argued that oceans span too many countries. Google has not confirmed the conversation. Earlier, following an executive order, Google Maps changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to "Gulf of America" in the United States and later did the same with Lake Ontario.
