What should I do after a TikTok name change?

- Change your name or username/handle on other social media accounts - Instagram, Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Pinterest, etc. This will also help keep your followers updated on your new name or username.

- If you're changing your legal name due to marriage, divorce, or court order, you'll need to start the name change process.
- If you changed the name of your brand or business, it's also probably time to start updating those names everywhere else as well, which as on your website, email signature, business cards, advertisements, etc.
