YouTube V3 Data API not returning updated channel names

If a channel name is changed in the UI under YouTube Studio's Channel customization section, the API keeps returning the old name for weeks (8 weeks now). I am wondering if this is expected or if there is something that we can do.

Example request

curl \
  'https://youtube.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=id%2CcontentDetails%2CbrandingSettings%2Csnippet&mine=true&key=[API_KEY]' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer [ACCESS_TOKEN]' \
  --header 'Accept: application/json' \
  --compressed

I know there are reports of channel names not updating in the UI for long periods of time. But these are over 6 years old, and I didn't see this reported about the API.
