  I didn’t put that quote up there, am just starting this blog and probably need to change its name, since there are so many others with similars. How do I do that?

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

  Hi there,

  Removing the “.wordpress” part of your site address does require a paid custom domain upgrade: https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/

  However, you’re able to change your site address at any time for free, baring in mind that the “.wordpress(.com)” part will remain present. Changing a site address: https://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-site-address/

  If you’re wishing to change your blog name but not your address, please follow this guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/general-settings/

  Let us know if you have any further questions. :)
