I want to use a name different from my legal name for my Facebook account.

Facebook is a community where everyone uses the name they go by in everyday life, so you always know who you're connecting with. If you need to change your name on Facebook, we have a form available in our Help Center. Learn more about what names are allowed on Facebook.

VR is a new type of environment and we’ve heard from our community that being able to have a distinct VR username and separate friends is important. This isn’t changing. You can still create or maintain a unique VR profile — so you might be Monique Smith on Facebook, but WarriorMama365 in VR.

If you don’t want your Oculus friends to find you by your Facebook name, you can adjust your privacy settings — just set Who will see your Facebook name on Oculus? to Only Me. You can also control who can see your activity on Oculus and who can see who your friends are on Oculus by adjusting your privacy settings.
