Greg,
I'm confused because you allude to different things. You say it's not a root site, but you give site collection root URL examples. If this is a standard subsite (I believe modern or not) Tanya is right, just site settings and logo/URL. However, if this is a Communication site or just site collection root site like you suggest at /sites/name, this URL cannot be changed (which is why the same URL box is hidden). If this was on-premises you could create a new site collection and potentially if the content DB is its own use the same DB on creation. Every modern site is its own site collection and therefore its URL cannot be changed.
