If you want to change your name on Facebook, you have a few
options. You can use a nickname or your birth name, or you can use a different
name entirely. The only requirement is that you save the change. Changing your
name on Facebook will change the way that people see you.
Before changing your name, you must check if your chosen
name is acceptable. It is important that your name not violate Facebook's
standards. You can change your name once every 60 days, but you can't change it
more than twice. If you're having trouble making a change, you can fill out a
form and a support representative will be able to help you change your name.
You might be asked to provide photo verification to verify your identity.
After you've submitted your request, Facebook will display
the current name of your page as well as the new name you've proposed. It will
take about three days for Facebook to review your request. After that, you'll
need to provide additional information if you want your name to be updated.
While Facebook has many benefits, it also has many
downsides. It was recently hit with lawsuits and fines following the Cambridge
Analytica scandal involving millions of users' data. While it may be fun to
share everything and keep in touch with friends, it is important to remember
that oversharing is an invitation for criminals and can lead to identity theft,
social stalking, and other serious privacy concerns.
To deactivate your Facebook account, you can visit the
Facebook site and follow the instructions on the screen. After you have
completed these steps, you should receive a confirmation email from Facebook.
