Page Names
Only authorized representatives can manage a Page for a brand, place, organization or public figure. Page names must accurately reflect Page content.
Page names can’t include:
- Abusive terms: Page names may not contain terms or phrases that may be abusive.
- Improper capitalization: Page names must use proper, grammatically correct capitalization.
- Symbols: Page names may not include symbols, such as ! or ® or TM. They must include logical, correct punctuation. Repeated and unnecessary punctuation is not permitted.
- Lengthy descriptions: Page names may not be excessively long, and may not include taglines or superfluous descriptions. Add this information to the About section of your Page.
- Variations of "Facebook": Page names may not contain any variation of the word "Facebook." See the Brand Permissions Center for more information.
- Generic location names: Pages with generic location names are not allowed to have admins. We require Pages to be managed by official representatives of the topic they're about, and no one person can singly represent a geographic location.
Other things to keep in mind:
- Qualifiers: you may use qualifiers in your Page name, but you may not have more than 2 words inside of parentheses. You can't use qualifiers to indicate location or use the word "official" in your Page's name, even if you're an official representative.
- Dates: you shouldn’t include a specific date or year for Pages that represent reoccurring events, since you won’t be able to update the date (ex: Facebook Conference 2013).
- Generic words: your Page name shouldn't consist solely of generic words (ex. “pizza”). We require Pages to be managed by official representatives of the topic they're about, and no one person can singly represent a generic object.
We suggest you add information such as the address and tagline in the About section of your Page.
Make sure your Page name meets these guidelines and create it here.
You can only change the name of a Page with fewer than 200 likes. If your Page qualifies, follow these steps to change its name:
- From the top of your Page, click Edit Page

- Select Update Info
- Change the text in the Name field and save your edits
If your Page has more than 200 likes, you can submit a name change request:
- From the top of your Page, click Edit Page

- Select Update Info
- Click Request Change next to the Name field
- Fill out the form with the required information and click Send
If your Page has more than 200 likes, you can only change your Page name once. If your request has been approved, you won't be able to submit another request for that Page.
Changing your Page's name does not affect its username or Page address. Learn more about changing your Page's username.
No. Pages with generic location names like "New York," "Ontario" and "Switzerland" are not allowed to have admins.
However, you can manage a Page for an organization that represents a geographic location. For example, "New York City – Mayor's Office," "Lok Sabha – Parliament of India" and "Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain" are acceptable Page names. You may also use a Page name that's different from the name of the organization, as long as the name accurately reflects what the Page is about (ex: "Tourism Ireland" can have a Page named "Discover Ireland").
Show people a version of your Page's name in a language they understand and help them find your Page in search by adding a translated Page name. Right now, you can add a translated Page name for people using Facebook in Chinese, English, Japanese and Korean.
To add a translated Page name:
- From the top of your Page, click Edit Page

- Select Update Info
- Next to Translated Names, click Add Translated Page Name
- Type a translated version of your Page's name in the box next to the language it's in
- Click Save Changes at the bottom of the screen
Translated Page names must use characters from the language they're in. For example, a translated Page name in Japanese for Yamamoto's Bookstore would need to use Japanese characters, like 山本 書店.
Choose your translated Page name carefully. Pages with 200 or more likes cannot make changes to their translated Page names, except to remove them.
If you create a Page with the name Yamamoto's Bookstore and add 山本 書店 as the Japanese translated Page name, people using Facebook in English will only see the original name:

When someone using Facebook in Japanese visits the same Page, they'll see the translated Page name next to the original name:
