Rename a feature display name in 15Five

Admins can rename two feature display labels in 15Five to match their organization's terminology. When complete, the new label appears in navigation, product surfaces, and notifications across the platform.

> Note: Only two features support display name customization: Best-Self Review® and Objectives. Renaming a display label does not change feature functionality — only the wording visible to your team updates.

> Note: Your organization may have already renamed these features. If you don't see "Best-Self Review®" or "Objectives" in your navigation, check with your admin for the names used in your account.

Before You Begin

  • You must have Account Admin access in 15Five.
  • This feature is available on the Focus and Total Platform pricing packages only.

  1. Go to Settings (bottom-left corner of your 15Five account).

  4. Click the Display name field expander to open name settings.
  5. Type the new display name in the text field.

The renamed label now appears in navigation, product surfaces, and notifications across the platform.
