How to Change Name on Facebook to Update name on Tinder

In most cases, people use their Facebook account to join Tinder, and then Tinder fills the user details based on their Facebook data automatically. So, if that is the case, if you want to change your name on Tinder, you just go to your FB account, and update your name there, and it will be updated on Tinder automatically. Here is how you can change name on Facebook:

How to Change Name on Facebook Using PC

1. Go to Facebook.com, and logging with your FB credentials.
2. Click to Settings.
   
   
3. Now, you will be directed to the Settings page. There click  “Edit” Next to your Name.
   
   
4. And, you will get the option to make changes to your name. You can alter your First, Middle, or Last name.
   
   

Remember that what you are changing won’t be again changeable for the next 60 days. So, make sure you have done things correctly. Once done, click “Review Change”

5. Now, it will ask you to select the name from the variants, then enter your password and click “Save Changes”
   
   
   

As the name updates on Facebook, it gets updated on Tinder as well if the FB account is connected. 

In many cases, it may not be updated or update a bit later. If it doesn’t get updated by chance, then you have to choose the second option of changing the name which I am going to discuss further in the article.

7. Now, you will be on the confirmation page where it will show you the variants from your entered name, there you select the one you would like to show into your profile, and then it will ask your password to confirm. Enter that, and tap “Save Changes”.

Just be informed that if you change your name on FB, you will have to wait for 60 days if you want to change again. So, always check spellings and typos before you tap the “save changes” button.

So, this is how you can change your name using Facebook Mobile App.

As the name updates on Facebook, it will automatically be updated on your Tinder profile if it is connected to your Facebook account.

What to do, if Changing the Name On Facebook Doesn’t Update it on Tinder?
