There are two ways in which a private limited company can change its name:
Please note: A company name must follow certain rules in order for it to be registered, for example: the name can’t be the same as another registered company’s name, it must end in either ‘Limited’ or ‘Ltd’, it can’t be offensive and it can’t contain a ‘sensitive’ word or expression, or suggest a connection with government or local authorities, unless you get permission.

Change of Company Name by Permission Given in the Company’s Articles of Association
If the Articles of Association of the company set out the procedure to change the company name you will have to follow the stated procedure and must file at Companies House Form NM04.
