Edit Facebook Group Name - Facebook is in fact becoming more versatile as time passes, rather surprisingly. I believe the only thing you definitely cannot change, the only thing that's simply locked into place as soon as you select it, is a reduced URL faster way.

 

Edit Facebook Group Name

Luckily the group name isn't in that little classification of permanent names, and it's not totally obvious the best ways to change it, however it can be done.
That's why you're here, right?!

To start, go to your group page on Facebook but do not click "Edit Settings" since it ain't exactly what you want. Instead look down the best side of the page. About a 3rd of the way down you'll see these choices:.

Click "Edit Group" and you'll see a heap of different options that you can modify, most importantly the group name:.

Let's zoom in a bit on that so you can see exactly what it looks like:.

To alter your Facebook group name, simply click in the text box that has the current name and usage DELETE, arrows and similar to alter the name to one that's more suitable. For this demonstration, I changed the group name from "Front Variety Blogger Meetup: The Facebook Group" to just "Front Range Blogger Meetup".

When you've set it effectively, click on "Save" at the bottom of the window and.

Done. Not too difficult once you understand where to click.

Confusingly, however, the page that consists of the alert of the modification being accepted still has the old name showed:.

No worries. That's just a caching problem: click on "Back to Group" and we see the appropriate name:.

Now we're done and it's confirmed.
I need to mention that everybody in the group will see an update notice that the name has actually been altered, however I cannot think of that's an issue:.

All the best with your own Edit Facebook Group Name.
