Edited by Thor, Rushell, Eng
Hello and welcome to VisiHow. In this video, we are going to show you how to change your name on Facebook when using a Microsoft Lumia 535.
Steps
- 1To begin, turn the phone on by pressing the Power button located on the right-hand side of the phone.
Advertisement - 2Once the phone has been activated, we will see the lock screen.
Advertisement - 3To unlock the phone, swipe the screen upwards.
- 4Once the phone has been unlocked, we will see the home screen.
- 5On the home screen we need to find the Facebook tile. It has a blue background. In the bottom right-hand corner of the tile is the Facebook icon, which is a white square with a blue "f" inside.
- 6Press down on the Facebook tile, and it will open up the application.
- 7We now need the icon located on the far right-hand side of the screen in the white bar. There are three gray horizontal lines.
- 8Pressing down on that icon will open the "More" menu.
- 9Now, we need the "Settings" option, so press down on that word.
- 10On the "Settings" menu, we want the option at the top that says "Privacy settings".
- 11Press down on that section to open a new menu.
- 12We want the first option at the top that says "General", so press down on that section.
- 13On the next screen, we want the first option that says "Name". Press down on that section.
- 14Then we'll have the opportunity to change our name in Facebook.
- 15However, it is important for us to first read the information provided toward the middle and lower part of the screen. It says, "Please note - You won't be able to change your name within the next 60 days. Make sure not to add any unusual capitalization, punctuation, characters or random words. As we can see, we can only change our name once every 60 days, so make sure to choose the correct name and not one we regret or that has any mistakes.
- 16Where it says "First Name", press down that box to bring up the keyboard. Then type in the first name. In our example, we've edited the name by changing "Tom" to "Tommy".
- 17Add a "Middle Name" if desired by pressing on the box below that option.
- 18We can change the "Last Name" as well by pressing down on that section. In our demonstration, we changed the last name of "Howl" to "How" by taking away the "l".
- 19If we scroll down, we'll see a blue bar that says "Review Change".
- 20Press down on that option, and it will give us a chance to choose how we want our name to appear. It says, "Choose how your name will appear on your profile."
- 21We can see that there is a blue circle with a white check mark across from the first option, "Tommy How". In order to change this, we can press down on the other circle. We'll just leave it as the first option.
- 22A message toward the middle of the screen says, "Please note - You won't be able to change your name within the next 60 days." Then it says "To save this setting, please enter your Facebook password."
- 23After entering our "password", we can press down on the blue bar where it says "Save Changes".
- 24That will save those changes, and we can see our new "Name" at the top of the screen.
- 25This concludes our tutorial on how to change your name on Facebook on a Microsoft Lumia 535.
