Go to Account Setting ➤ General Account Settings ➤ click Edit on the right of Name. Read carefully, FB tell you there how many times left for you to change your name.

My advise is use your own name, abbreviate if necessary, don't put like your name & your sweet heart for example; in case you're hacked or can't log in, you might be asked to submit your ID to regain your account.

I don't know in your Country but here in the philippines it is possible through Local Civil Registry Office by making a petition to do so and it costs Php.3000 for a name change.
