How can I change my default Shopify account name to My Green Bay?

[Jelliebean]

Hi when I opened up my Shopify account I skipped the step of entering your shop name and I ended up with C42576.myshopify.com  how do I edit this C42576 now to read my shop name My Green Bay?

Hi @Jelliebean,

Thank you for reaching out to the Community! I'm happy to provide some assistance with adjusting your shop's domain name, to ensure this gets resolved.

The feature to change your .myshopify.com domain name was recently made to become available to certain merchants. While this feature continues to be in early access, you may be eligible to make this adjustment.

If you learn you are eligible and decide to make this change, it's important to note that you will only be granted the opportunity to change the shops .myshopify.com domain once. I recommend checking out our Adding Business Settings For Your Store document for more information on this process. 

To adjust the domain name, you can:

• Head to Settings > Domain, from the Shopify admin.

• On the Domains page, click Change to a new myshopify.com domain next to your default domain name.

• Enter a new name, and then click Add domain.

Please let me know if you have any other concerns.

Hi

Thank you for your help. I followed the steps and changed the name. It
says C42576.myshopify.com will redirect to MyGreenBay.myshopify.com. Is
this correct?

Do I carry on doing my designing in C42576 or MyGreenBay? Apologies for
all the questions, I am just not sure how to proceed from here.

Kind regards

Christine Jones

Hi @Jelliebean,

Great to hear you were able to successfully change the shops domain. To gain a bit more clarification however, is MyGreenBay.myshopify.com a separate shop? 

If not, you can continue working on the shop to create your online shop, products, collections, etc. As you simply adjusted the domain name, the shop was C42576.myshopify.com and is now MyGreenBay.myshopify.com.

I look forward to your response!
