US President Donald Trump proposed to Google that either the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean be renamed 'Trump Ocean' in his honor, but the company declined his request.

Speaking at a campaign rally in Georgia, Trump said he tried to persuade Google to name one of the oceans after him, but the company rejected the idea.

Trump's request focused on renaming either the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean as 'Trump Ocean,' and he said he even sent the company a map with the proposed name.

According to Trump, Google explained its refusal by stating that oceans span many countries, making it impossible to change their names in such a way.
