I would love for us to be able to change free company names. Now before I get told 'why did you pick that one?' and 'just make another!' here is my situation:

My free company was originally made by a group of friends with whom we played another mmo. Many of that original group did not stay. Now we have an entirely new composition of our free company and the name not only doesn't fit anymore but we have no way to change it. I know we can change the tag but that really doesn't solve the problem.
Starting over would mean having to level a new one from scratch (we're well on our way to rank 6 now) and losing our 300k+ in company credits. Also we would have to re-recruit in a situation where many FC's are scrambling to pick people up as well to try to rank up to the new max. Also we have some members who are currently not playing due to financial obligations over the holidays but will be back. I would hate to reform the free company and have them log in and feel abandoned if they cannot find us quickly.
This was an existing concern of ours for several weeks now, but it's even more concerning now as we're considering buying a house and investing a significant amount of gil. If we do that, as I understand it, we lose the house if we have to disband to change the name.

So I ask, will this be an option? Can we expect an ability to change the name?
