Changing the name of a page will also change the URL of that page. But don't worry, visitors will be automatically redirected to the renamed page when trying to access the old page. The redirect will be kept as long as you don't create a new page with the formerly used name.
Examples? Examples!
For your website https://example.com/, you initially create a page called "Wine" which receives the following URL: https://example.com/wine. After some weeks you figure out that you'd like to use a more specific name for the page and change it to "Red wine". This also has an effect on the page URL: https://example.com/red-wine. Your visitors will be automatically redirected to the new page when trying to access the old one.
If you decide to rename the page yet another time, e.g. to "Italien red wine", the page will have a new URL: https://example.com/italian-red-wine. Now, both former URLs (https://example.com/wine and https://example.com/red-wine) will redirect the visitor to the "Italien red wine" page.
If you now create a new page with the name "Wine", the URL https://example.com/wine will open the new "Wine" page and won't redirect to the "Italian red wine" page anymore.
