  How can I change my website name? I’ve tried but it won’t save. My current one is ‘soyeahimayouthpastor’ and I want to change to ‘soyeahimapastor’. Is this possible?

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

  Hello,

  I did a quick search I realized that soyeahimapastor.wordpress.com already exists. That’s why you are not able to save the new name. Because someone else already have a blog using this address.

  But the good news is the domain soyeahimapastor.com is available though :) :)

  So if you really want to change your current address you could either upgrade to a paid plan and resister the domain soyeahimapastor.com (or .net or .blog) or change the address slightly either by removing something (e.g yeahiamapastor.wordpress.com – this one is available) or adding something to the address (soyeah-iamapastor.wordpress.com).

  :) Hope it helps
