How to Edit the name of one of your lists on Facebook
You can edit the name of any list or smart list that you create on Facebook. To edit the name of one of your lists:
- Click Friend Lists under Explore on the left side of your News Feed
- Click on the list you want to edit
- Click Manage List at the top of the page
- Select Rename List
- Type in the new name and click Save
When you change the name of a smart list, only you can see the new name. So if John changes the name of his San Francisco list to "SF People" and shares with that list, the friends on that list will still see “John’s San Francisco Friends” in the audience icon. Remember that when you share with friends on a list, they only see the name of the list if it’s a smart list.
Note: Close Friends, Acquaintances and Restricted lists can’t be renamed.
