  I want to change the name of my site, as it was set up by my son using a joke name: aintitawful.wordpress.com. I want to change it to quovadis.wordpress,com, but get told that that name has been used. However, as far as I can tell, no blog called quovadis,wordpress.com exists. So, what does it mean that the name ‘has been used’?

  I tried various other options for names, ‘pharos’, ‘hesperia’, and ‘hesperian’. All have either ‘been used’ or are ‘reserved’.

  I’d prefer quovadis,wordpress,com if possible, Is it possible to get that name?

  Thanks.

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