New Timeline Page Option: Change your Page Name

One of the most requested but unavailable options to Facebook Fan Page Admins was the option to be able to change your Fan Page Name.

Up to this point, you could only change a Facebook Page name if the Page had fewer than 100 Likes. (Facebook Documentation)

Now with Timeline it appears this has changed for some users!  

UPDATE: It seems that it is not available for all users.  We are trying to see if we can determine any definitive directives on why or why not it appears for some Fan Pages and not others.

Inside the Admin Panel of a Page with Timeline (or in Preview mode!) under the “Help” drop down is a new feature, “Request a name change for your Page”.

Clicking this opens a page with a short form that you can submit to Facebook.

A e-mail from Facebook confirms your submission and outlines if further information is needed.  It also outlines that the process should only take up to 3 days!
