How are bodies of water named? And who gets to decide? (Ex. Pacific Ocean, South China Sea)
I see. Are there any particular criteria for naming a body of water?
There's no set criteria for naming a body of water, but it often reflects the culture, history, or geography of the area. For example, the Mediterranean Sea is named after the Latin word for "middle of the earth," because it is situated between Europe, Africa and Asia.
