How to change a page name on Facebook
In This Article
Many people run a Facebook page to promote a cafe, celebrate a beloved topic or simply showcase snaps of a pet. But there may come a time when you want to tweak the name of your Facebook page. Doing so is a simple process, and we’ve outlined all the important steps below.
You may want to change your Facebook page name to correct a typo, or even just to give it a fresh new look. Either way, Facebook fortunately offers you the option to do so, although you can only make a tweak every 60 days.
It’s important to note that there are two types of Facebook pages: Classic pages and New pages. For Classic pages, you’ll need to be an admin to tweak the name, while if you’re using the New page experience, you’ll need Facebook access as task access won’t be enough.
What you’ll need
The Short Version
Pixel 8a for just £374.40
Making it the ultimate go-to upgrade thanks to its limited time price cut, the Pixel 8a is now a bargain buy that’s still packed with all the features you could ever need.
How to change a page name on Facebook
Step1
Open Facebook
This guide applies to Classic pages. If you’re running a New page, scroll to the bottom of this guide to learn how to change your page name.
Step2
Go to your page
This’ll either be on the right side of the screen under the Your Pages header or in the Pages section on the left.
Step3
Scroll down and click Edit Page Info
You’ll find this section on the left side of the screen. If you can’t see the option, click Settings instead, and then press Edit next to the name of your page.
Step4
Erase your old page name and enter your new one
Before you edit your name, note that Facebook won’t let you make any further edits for another 60 days, so make sure you don’t make any mistakes. Once done, you can click anywhere outside of the box.
Step5
Hit Request Change to confirm your name change
Then just wait up to three days for the name change to be approved by Facebook.
Troubleshooting
If you can’t see Edit Page Info anywhere on screen, click Page Settings instead and then select Page Info in the left column.
If you’re using Facebook’s New page experience, you’ll need to switch into the page with Facebook Access to request a name change.Simply, switch into the page, click your page photo in the top right, click Settings & Privacy, select Settings, Click General Page Settings and hit Name. Then enter your new page name, click Review Change and enter your password to complete the change.
