Dear Sir or Madam,
Regarding Arabian Gulf in your list, please be advised there is not such a thing as Arabian or Arab gulf. By Arabian gulf, some extra nationalist Arabic governments, may refer to the very well known Persian Gulf. Arabian gulf or Arab gulf has never been recognized formally or internationally (referece: wikipedia).
