Nowadays seas are regarded as geographical objects in their own right, firmly demarcated and named, but in the 16th and 17th centuries this practice had not been established. Coastel waters might be named after the country they led to, just as was the case for highways, where the London Road would be the road leading to London. Simultaneously (and in an East-Asian setting even earlier), cardinal directions were used as naming elements. The sea north of one country ( or the sea that led one in a northerly direction) would be named the "North Sea" of that country but, simultaneousely, could be the "South Sea" of another.
