     @gentoobro @EdBoatConnoisseur @SnugSmug this condition already exists with the Rio Grande / Rio Bravo. Or Kiev / Kyiv. Or X / Twitter. Words are actually just for the purpose of communication and don't have magical reality-bending powers, so if people know what you mean, you succeeded, and communication friction between cultures or language groups is something that can't be avoided anyway.
     
     We call China 'China'. Russians call it Китай. Chinese calls it "middle country" using different sounds depending on the dialect and foreigners could hardly replicate the correct pronunciation without long training anyway.
     
     Obsessing about this or whining that foreigners don't use your PREFERRED NOUNS or make "Turkey? No thanks I'll have chicken." jokes, is just cancer. Near to transgenderism.

     @SnugSmug Wonder if the gulf cartel won't intervene.

     Prolly won't care, since Mexico won't change the name. It'll just be the US and maybe a few of its vassals that calls it by the wrong name.
