I have not seen any instruction which ask me to choose my family tree's name, and do not want the name that was given to my family tree.

 

How do I change the name of the family tree?

  There is no option for that anymore, and besides - the constructed name is based on your and eventually spouses's name so even if you could change it your close relatives will see another name based on their location in the tree.

  i agree - this is not a good policy . . . and understand if someone is irked by being invited to someone else's tree . . . everyone who joins should see the tree with their name, no?

  Agree, we should be able to choose a name for our family tree. The person who started the tree should simply be the administrator with primary admin rights.

  I am having the same problem.  It appears as my husband's tree and email's to invite my family are in his name.  Any help?

  I am collaborating with my cousins to create a tree for our family, as descendants of our grandparents. The tree should be in their name. Not in mine, or with my spouse, whose family is not on this tree. I need to change the name on this tree.
