  The domain name I wanted (for a grant program at a community college) seems to be ‘reserved.’ But I can’t find anything current on the web for that name. So, is there a way to find out if it’s available? To talk to the current owner?

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

  Hi, see here:

  Reserved Site Names/URLs
  When a WordPress.com user signs up for an account we reserve the URL of their username. So if they signed up for the username of exampleuser we would reserve exampleuser.wordpress.com for them. There is nothing we can do to unreserve it and you will need to choose a different name.
