I mean, I'm still using Turkey, and my parents still occasionally refer to Former Yugoslavia and they called Zaire by it's old name (Congo) long enough that they are now once again correct. On the other hand, I'm pretty nobody here has ever called Heerman's Gull anything but "seagull", so I doubt anyone will notice this.
