Facebook username are quite different from your real names or page name on Facebook, these are names you provide to help you create a defined Facebook URL such as www.facebook.com/USERNAME.
They are usually your nicknames, pet-name, brand name or anything that will help people find you easily. Looking at the sample web address above; “USERNAME” serves as a username for that account. So depending on what you like, you can easily create one either for your profile or page(s) because such links can be used to access your profile directly by typing in as seen in your browser’s address bar. These usernames can further be used to log into your Facebook accounts instead of typing your full emails.
