Evolution of the Name:- Originally named the FIBA World Championship for Women, the tournament officially rebranded to the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup following the 2014 edition. 

Scheduling Cycle:- For decades, it ran in the same year as the men's tournament. While the men's cycle shifted in 2019 to avoid competing with the FIFA World Cup, the women's tournament remains on its traditional four-year cycle, aligning with even-numbered, non-Olympic years.
