You may change the name of your group at any time, but remember: this may confuse your members.

If you change your group email address/URL:

• Any existing invitations, links, and sign-up boxes outside the Yahoo! Groups service will no longer be valid, since these refer to your old group name.
• Any message filters or email in-box assistance programs maintained by your members may have to be changed. For example, if a member has an email program that organizes incoming messages into folders, it may not be able to recognize your new group name.
• If your group has been running for some time, your members may resist any changes to the name.

Please carefully consider the implications before changing the name of a group.

If you want to do it, here’s how:

1. From the list on the left, click Management. This link only shows up if you’re the owner of the group or a moderator with Management privileges.
2. Under "Group Settings" in the upper right, click "Description & Appearance".
3. Click Edit next to "Web Address".
4. Change the "Group Address", then click Save Changes.
5. Note: We generally recommend checking the box to notify users of changes.
