# Change a user's name

{!admin-only.md!}

 | 
						|
By default, users can [change their name](/help/change-your-name), though
 | 
						|
organization administrators can
 | 
						|
[restrict name changes](/help/restrict-name-and-email-changes).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Organization administrators can always change any user's name.
 | 
						|
 |
