You can change your name on Facebook in the Settings section of the website or mobile app.

You can only change your Facebook name once every 60 days.

Nicknames can be used if they adhere to Facebook’s community standards.

Whether you’ve recently changed your last name or want to add a fun nickname, changing your name on your Facebook profile is a fairly straightforward process. 

Note: You can only change your Facebook name once every 60 days, though, so if you’re going for something humorous, make sure you can live with it for at least two months.

Here’s what you need to know about Facebook’s name change policy and how to  change your name on a desktop browser or the Facebook mobile app. 

What is Facebook’s name change policy?

While you don’t have to use your full legal name on Facebook, there are rules as to what types of names you can and cannot use.

Facebook prefers its users to use the name they go by in everyday life. Facebook names cannot include the following:

• Symbols, numbers, nonstandard capitalization, repeating characters, or punctuation
• Characters from more than one language
• Titles of any kind (whether professional, religious, or something else)
• Words or phrases instead of a name
• Words or phrases that go against Facebook’s Community Standards
• Words or phrases that represent organizations instead of people. Facebook Profiles are for individuals, while Pages are for businesses, organizations, and ideas

As far as nicknames go, Facebook allows them for first or middle names as long as they are a variation of your actual name (like Abby instead of Abigail). Impersonating other users is not allowed on Facebook and violates their Community Standards.

Note: Choosing a name that matches an ID or document on Facebook’s approved ID list can help you regain access to your Facebook account
