Changing your name or username on Facebook

Although it's possible, and quite easy, to change your username on Facebook, we wouldn't recommend it unless it's absolutely important. If you made a mistake the first time, then you probably would want to make the change. On the other hand, changing your Display name is totally fine. Remember that you can only change your name once every 60 days.
