Quick answer: In FC 27 go to Ultimate Team → Settings → Rename Club, enter a new name (up to 15 characters) and a three-letter abbreviation, and confirm. According to player guides you can do this as often as you like. Squad names are separate: you change them in the Squad Selector.

Change your club name
- Open Ultimate Team in the full game (console or PC).
- Go to the Settings tab.
- Select Rename Club.
- Enter your new club name. It can have up to 15 characters, spaces included.
- Keep or change the three-letter abbreviation. It is shown next to the score during matches.
- Check your entries and confirm.
At the start of the season there is also a Foundations objective that asks you to rename your club and gives a small reward. You find it under Objectives → Foundations. If you like your name, confirm the old one to complete the objective.
You cannot change the club name in the Web App or Companion App.
Change a squad name
Every saved squad has its own name, so you rename each squad separately:
- In Ultimate Team, open Squads and go to your active squad.
- Open the squad management menu and select Squad Selector.
- Highlight the squad and choose Rename (the button is shown at the bottom of the screen; in FC 26 it was ▢ on PlayStation and X on Xbox).
- Type the new name and save.
How often can you rename your club?
According to player guides, FC 27 has no limit: you can rename your club as often as you like. That was not always the case. In FIFA 22 you could change the name only once, in FIFA 23 three times. If the option is ever greyed out, EA has limited it again.
Naming rules
- EA's filter blocks offensive or inappropriate words. Tricks with symbols or creative spelling are noticed too.
- Other players can report your club name. EA can then reset the name and take further action against the account.
- Choose something you still like in a few months: the name appears in every match, on leaderboards and in Rivals and Weekend League.
