You may have heard the story that the Trump administration has been so keen to eliminate DEI from government that it flagged a picture of the plane that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshim for deletion because it was called the Enola Gay.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 16 February 2025

So the Trump administration has sought to rename the Gulf of Mexico, and Google and Apple are falling in line. (Though apparently a lot of users of Google Maps are reporting Gulf of America as misspelled.)

For the record, if you call it Gulf of America at iQ Trivia you WILL be marked wrong.

Now for your team names this week, we want you to look at a map and suggest another name change.

Pizza Hut Presents The Gulf of America

New Mexico is now Slightly Used Mexico

Since Trump like putting his name on things, every state, county, and city in America is now called Trump

New Zealand is Temu Australia

Red, White, and Blue Land, not Greenland

Sydney to Sadney

Russia = North Ukraine

Any renamed places will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.
