  I have a problem – i want to set up a new blog with a certain name. The thing is, even though the blog which was previously using this address was deleted, i cannot use it now for myself. Is it any solution to that without changing the name of blog?

  You can’t – gone is gone forever and WordPress.COM does not recycle names, You need to choose a bit different name or buy a custom domain and map it.
