  Yes, you can. To change a blog URL ending in wordpress.com, please follow these steps:

  Another alternative is to purchase a custom domain name to take “wordpress” out of the domain altogether.

  If you want to change the mapped domain name, you’ll need to register a new one and map it to your blog.
