  Hello,
  I changed my site name under settings. But since I changed it the old name still remains as soon as I post my blog on facebook for example. Why is that! And how can I change that!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  re: changing a site title or tagline
  The Site title (blog name) and/or the optional Tagline can be changed on the top of this page at any time. > Settings > General … “save changes”.

  That is exactly where search engine spiders look for the site title and removing it from there can cause issues with getting your content indexed. Note that the site title (blog name) and blog address URL do not have to be the same but it’s better for SEO (search engine optimization) if they are the same.

  It seems Facebook has yet to flush their caches and we have zero control on that. You can try using the Facebook debugger to expedite this by visiting https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
