How come I, as an admin, can change the name of some Facebook Groups but not others?
-
I'm admin of multiple Facebook Groups, and I can change a couple of the names of them, but not all. Why is this? I noticed that the one I can't change has notably more people. Is there a cutoff in terms of people for name change?

Once Facebook Pages go over 100 users, the name cannot be changed. I assume the same or similar goes for Group names. This number might be 100 or 250 members. It seems that Facebook's Help Docs do not give a number (however, they do for Pages). 250 is the limit for privacy settings on groups, so perhaps that number applies to name changes as well: "Admins of groups with fewer than 250 people can change the privacy setting" http://facebook.com/help/?faq=18796

I don't know for sure, but I assume the ones you cannot change are the larger groups. I think this is to prevent the case where you created a group like "puppy lovers," get a bunch of members and then change the name to something users wouldn't want, like "NAMBLA lovers" or "Free Ipad click here!" (I work at FB, but not on Groups.)

Per the page policy, once you have over 100 members or "Likers," the name is not changeable. Not sure if it applies to Groups.
