McDonald’s has officially changed its company name to “Golden Arches” in China.

MCDONALD'S TO RELEASE DOLLAR MENU REPLACEMENT IN 2018

According to CNN Money, the global fast food chain is changing from Maidanglao, meaning McDonald’s, to Jingongmen, roughly translated to the chain’s nickname, “Golden Arches.”

Though the change from iconic McDonald’s would seem like a huge deal, “the name change only applies to the chain’s business registration,” a spokesperson told CNN Money. The “restaurant’s branding will stay the same” and likely not have any major effect on the company’s business.

Picking names with more foreign appeal is not unusual for big name brands. Both Coca Cola and Google have adopted different monikers overseas.
