What names are allowed on Facebook?
Facebook is a community where people use their authentic identities. We require people to provide the name they use in real life; that way, you always know who you're connecting with. This helps keep our community safe.
Please don't add any of these to your name:
- Symbols, numbers, unusual capitalization, repeating characters or punctuation
- Characters from multiple languages
- Titles of any kind (ex: professional, religious)
- Words or phrases in place of a middle name
- Offensive or suggestive words of any kind
Other things to keep in mind:
- The name you use should be the name your friends call you in real life and as our acceptable identification forms would show.
- Nicknames can be used as a first or middle name if they're a variation of your authentic name (like Bob instead of Robert).
- You can also list an additional name on your account (ex: maiden name, nickname, professional name).
- Profiles are for individual use only. We offer Pages for professional personas, organizations and businesses.
- Pretending to be anything or anyone isn't allowed.
If your authentic name isn’t listed on your account, please change your name. If you're unable to change it,learn more.
