Change a Facebook Page Name
Source-checked About 10 minutes
Answer
Switch into the Page, open Page setup > Name, enter the new name, and request the change. You need Facebook access that permits Page-name changes.
Check Page access and naming rules
You need Facebook access to the Page that permits management changes; task access alone may not expose the name control. Choose a name that accurately represents the Page and does not contain misleading terms, unnecessary punctuation, slogans, or improper capitalization.
Switch into the correct Page
Select your profile picture, choose See all profiles, and switch into the Page you are authorized to manage. Confirm the Page name and profile image before opening settings, especially if you administer several Pages.
Open the Page name setting
From the Page profile, open Settings & privacy > Settings > Page setup > Name. Menu placement can differ slightly between desktop and mobile, but the request must be made while acting as the Page.
Enter the proposed name
Select the current Page name, type the new one, and review spelling, spacing, capitalization, and brand consistency. Changing the Page name does not automatically change its username or web address.
Submit the request
Choose Review Change, enter your Facebook password if requested, and submit. Facebook reviews the request, so the new name may not appear immediately and approval is not guaranteed.
Handle a missing or rejected option
If Name is unavailable, verify your Page access and whether the name was changed recently. For a rejection, review Facebook's Page-name rules and correct the specific issue instead of repeatedly submitting cosmetic variations.

If it does not work
- If the Name control is absent, verify that you have Facebook access with permission to manage the Page and that you switched into the correct Page. If Facebook rejects the request, correct the cited naming-rule issue and wait through any displayed restriction period.
