How to Change Your Name on Facebook After Having Already Confirmed It




Facebook users who have previously confirmed their name with Facebook sometimes find it difficult to change it after then. Since verification provides Facebook with a record of their real names.

In such a case, users won't generally be able to change their Facebook name completely, unless they happen to have legally changed their name since first confirming. If that is the case, then they will need to go through the confirmation process once again via Facebook's Help Center
