Oil and gas giant Total will be rebranded as TotalEnergies as it shifts some of its focus towards renewable energy sources.
Shareholders voted overwhelmingly in favour of the move.

Big energy firms are coming under increasing pressure to adjust to a lower-carbon world.
Total is putting forward a motion on environmental goals, including reaching carbon neutrality by 2050.
But several small investors say they plan to vote against the motion.
The vote will be watched carefully after upsets earlier this week at two other energy giants.
On Wednesday, a small hedge fund investor succeeded in ousting two board members at Exxon in the US, in a bid to alter its direction on climate change.
And a court in the Netherlands ordered Royal Dutch Shell to cut its emissions more quickly than the Anglo-Dutch oil firm had planned.
