"I said, 'Sundar, I'm thinking of the Atlantic Ocean. Can you handle it?' "'No, no, no, this time I'm not doing it,' he said, 'Oceans are different, sir. They cover a lot of - really a lot of countries. Please don't ask us to do that.'" The US president later said he would "probably pass" and keep the name Atlantic, before saying, "We're going to call it the American Ocean".

    Well, he didn’t rename Lake Superior; he’ll probably call the Pacific “Superior Ocean” and miss the fact that this means the one bit will be America and the other bit Superior.

    Canada should agree to name a Great Lake after Trump, and invite him to a big, gaudy ceremony to rename it to "Lake Inferior".

    I suggest it not be a great lake; we can tell him to make it great.

    I’ve got the perfect suggestion for “Lake Inferior” - it’s a currently unnamed lake below the Crypt Lake trail in Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta.
