  Deleting a blog is forever. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-blog/ It takes 3 warnings and a verification link in an email that make it clear the blog URL will be gone forever and the URL cannot be recycled and reused by anyone. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/ That’s why we Volunteers recommend http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/making the blog visibility private and using it as a test blog or a backup blog.

  I can access this blog > http://juliamuntane.wordpress.com/
  Is that the one you mean? If so, then it has not been deleted.

  I give you and explication:

  I had two blogs:

  juliamuntane.wordpress.com
  pdepetit.wordpress.com

  In juliamuntane I have all the information. Then I wanted to delete pdepetit and change juliamuntane for pedetit.

  I would like to have: pdepetit.wordpress.com

  I would make juliamuntane.wordpress.com a private blog.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/
  Then I would export all the content out of it and import it into pdepetit.wordpress.com

  I’m sorry, but deleted blogs cannot be restored or reused. Deleting a blog is permanent and the name cannot be used again. There are several warnings about this on the Tools -> Delete Site page and in the help pages, and you are required to confirm the deletion by email.
