    Hi!
    I want to create facebook page for my company/site with 3d models and it looks like I cannot use number 3 which is in my website`s name. Am I wrong and doing something wrong? Is it possible I want to have just 3D A..... that is all. Can I have logo of my website as a profile photo?

    I don't see any restrictions on numbers, they are allowed. Are you trying to use a space? Space is not allowed:

    For businesses it is still name and surname and when I write only 3DA... I get info about surname. I used 3D as a name and A... as a surname. It does not work for me. I get: "This name has some characters that are not allowed." What do I do wrong?

    Name and surname are needed for personal profiles, they indeed cannot contain numbers. For businesses you need to create Pages from your profile (Profile - Create - Page):

    I am not using punctuation of course, it was only because I did not want to write whole name of my site (and of course I do not have .com). So it means I am on a wrong page. I have copied a link for creating business facebook, but it looks exactlu the same as a regular personal account signing up routines with name and surename. Really I have never experienced something so strange with any account. I read that it is possible to change a name for company name after and I tried. I used my name and surname and wanted to change it after logging on but it was not possible. The only message I get is the same as I wrote before. The last link is telling about personal accounts. People use very different names and surnames from these they have in reality, so why I cannot use my company name or website name on a business fb page? People often have only one word as a name of company on fb. I do not know why it does not working for me.

    Ok, so it is not possible, so it is not possible. I have tried to write ThreeD A... but it is not possible to have two capital letters as well. Haha, ok, I have used a name of my company which uses two normal words without numbers and people need to learn that this company is an owner of 3D A... website. I need to live with that. Thanks for helping me "Well-Known Member ;)
