Trump wants to rename the Strait of Hormuz after himself. Here's everything he's put his name and face on as president — so far.

President Donald Trump has a known penchant for putting his name on things.

He has launched TrumpRX, Trump Accounts, and announced a new "Trump-class" of Navy ships.

His GOP allies have also renamed an airport in Florida and a bridge in Tennessee.

Even before becoming president of the United States, Donald Trump had a known penchant for putting his name on things.

In his second, non-consecutive term, Trump has named — and renamed — a growing number of government programs and buildings after himself, often forging ahead with changes despite criticism and lawsuits .

His board appointees, members of his administration, and other GOP allies have also taken to adding Trump's name or face to their own initiatives.

"President Trump is focused on saving our country — not garnering recognition," White House spokesman Davis Ingle told Business Insider.

"However, given his vast accomplishments, including signing the largest tax cut in history, securing the border, restoring peace through strength, and more, it is natural that local officials and other great patriots want to recognize the President's incredible work on behalf of the American people." Additionally, Trump has renamed geographical landmarks after the US, changing the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America" in January 2025 and Lake Ontario to "Lake America" in August.

In a Truth Social post on Tuesday, he mused about changing the Strait of Hormuz to "Trump Strait." Here's a look at everything Trump has put his name and face on since returning to the White House — so far.
