To edit your Facebook page name, follow these steps:
-
Review Facebook's Page Name Standards: Before you start, make sure your desired name adheres to Facebook's guidelines to avoid rejection. These standards typically cover things like avoiding misleading names, improper capitalization, and unauthorized use of brand names.
-
Navigate to the "About" Section: On your Facebook page, click on "About" in the left-hand menu. If you don't see it immediately, you might need to click "See More."
-
Edit the "Name" Section: Under the "General" section, you'll find "Name." Click "Edit" next to it.
-
Enter Your New Page Name: Type in your desired new page name in the provided field, and then click "Continue."
-
Request the Change: Review the requested change, ensuring it's accurate and adheres to Facebook's guidelines. Finally, click "Request Change."
Important Considerations:
- Review Time: Facebook reviews page name changes to ensure they comply with their policies. The review process can take a few days.
- Previous Name: You may be asked to provide a reason for the name change. Also, Facebook may show users your previous name for a period of time to inform them of the change.
- Page Eligibility: New pages may have restrictions on changing names until they have a certain number of likes or followers.
- Business Verification: You might be asked to verify your business before the name change is approved. This could involve submitting documentation to prove your business legitimacy.
