  Hello Heidi!

  Domain mapping of IDNs (Internationalized Domain Names), is not currently supported at WordPress.com. Your domain name is an IDN if it contains language-specific characters such as é.

  Here’s more information on these types of domain names: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationalized_domain_name

  Sorry I can’t help with this. If you have any other questions at all, please do let me know.
