Blog names

    I tried to change the name of my blog, but it created a whole new one instead. How can I change the first blogs name to the new one without creating a whole new blog?

    primary blog: shanashtanga.wordpress.com to be changed to rock3tshan.wordpress.com

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    First, let’s differentiate between blog name/title and blog address. shanashtanga.wordpress.com is that blog’s address, and at the moment it doesn’t appear to have a title.

    The second one, rock3tshan.wordpress.com currently displays the title, Rock3tshan Yoga.

    You can change the title by going to Settings ->General in your dashboard without changing anything else.

    Changing the address will always create a new blog at the new address (and also move the content over to that new address) while giving the opportunity to either delete or keep the old address as well (I recommend keeping it as deleting is permanent). Instructions for changing the address is here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/

    If some of your content is now at the wrong address, you can export it and import it back to the correct address. See: http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#moving-between-wordpress-com-blogs

    Please let us know if you need more help with this.
