People still refer to Alphabet as Google, so I wouldn't expect this change any time soon.

That was my first assumption as well, but it seems like Alphabet is taking the traditional 'parent company' approach to branding, and not pushing a name change from Google to Alphabet.

It seems like Facebook is really trying to fully rebrand as Meta; even the Facebook 'about' page displays Meta instead of Facebook: https://about.facebook.com

Not really / only in a business context where it sorta matters, same as Google/Alphabet.

At React Conf 2021 everyone was suddenly an engineer at Meta instead of Facebook, which was kind of odd at first.
