  A while back, I changed my site name from ‘A’ to ‘B’. I would now like to use another account to create the site name ‘A’ however it states that it is currently being reserved. I am guessing that it is reserved due to the fact that my username was ‘A’ in the past. I would now like to have this name reinstated for my other account to have this site address please. Thank you.

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

  Hi there,

  When changing your site name, if you chose to discard the address, then it has been permanently disabled and unfortunately cannot be reused by you or anyone else.

  You can change it, but not to one you have previously deactivated/deleted. I’m sorry, wish there were better news for you.
