  Hi there,
  Unfortunately, after a domain has been registered, it isn’t editable. This isn’t a WordPress.com rule, it’s just the way custom domains are created online. If you wish to have a new domain name for your WordPress.com site, you can register the new one by clicking on Store → Add A Domain in your site’s Dashboard.
  Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks very much!

  thanks for your answer. In this case I could registered another and remove the one I had? but I should pay two times 18 € for the first year, and the second year don’t need to pay for the old one, it’s right?

  Hi there, You are correct — if you choose not to use the first domain name at all, you do not have to pay for it again when it expires. I hope this helps! Take care.

  Hi there! If we cancel your domain (musikschuleamfeuerseeinstuttgart.com), it can take up to several weeks for our domain registrar to release the domain, and we can’t guarantee that your domain will be available to you again once canceled.

  If you want to keep using your domain but you don’t want to use WordPress.com anymore, you don’t have to cancel it. Instead, you can move the domain to another site, using the Domain Administration tool under Store > My Domains in your dashboard.

  For more information on using the domain elsewhere, please see:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/move-domain/

  However, if you don’t want this domain at all, please confirm that you would like me to cancel it for you. This cannot be undone, so please consider carefully before making your decision.

  Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.
