Before we begin the process of name change, please remember that Facebook limits name changes to once every 60 days. This rule stops spam and keeps things consistent for users. Plan your name changes carefully to avoid hitting this limit. Keep in mind that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve clicked into the\u202fEdit<\/strong>\u202fbox, type a new name. Here are some of the naming rules you have to take into consideration before naming your page again:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n

- No symbols, numbers, random capitalization, repeating characters or punctuation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- No characters from languages other than English<\/li>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Submit a New Name<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Click Review Change<\/strong> following your entered altered name to save it. If you do not see this option, confirm that you are listed as a page admin. Please note that other page responsibilities cannot access changes in Facebook page name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You must be an admin of the page.

If you are sure that there are no more issues, go ahead and click on the Request Change<\/strong> setting. You will be prompted to give your password. Be sure to remember that. Also make sure that you are not putting in a request within 60 days of previous name change as Facebook does not allow that. There is no limit to how many times you change your page name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Wait for Confirmation<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Facebook does not take long to confirm your name changes. If you face a delay i.e., more than a day or two, it might be wise to reach out to Facebook and ensure there is no issue with the name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
