Why Does Name Link Have 15 Numbers After It?

My facebook name is: savvyentrepreneurwomensnetwork/516392598417101.   I cannot pull up my account using just the name and no one would be able to find me using the name WITHOUT adding these last 15 numbers.  I changed the name to "SEWN" but numbers were still added.  What can I do about this?  I can't even advertise my FB name because the numbers make it too long for everything.  I feel cheated.  I am not sure what this falls under..technical..troubleshooting.  This is a business name and I cannot be found.

Sorry for your problems. The easy solution is in your promotional materials to use an alias. You can create the alias from any of 116 "URL Shortening Services" to which you can link from https://code.google.com/p/shortenurl/wiki/URLShorteningServices. The major downside is that should your chosen service fold the alias may no longer work.
