  Since this account is linked to an old email, I wanted to use the domain name on a new account. I thought renaming the site would only stop myself from using it in the future, and accidentally clicked the discard current address checkbox. I would like to restore the old name to my blog. Is this possible, through the support or otherwise?

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

  re: change the blog address ie. the URL this option will permanently disable the address and you will not be able to reuse it. Only select this option if you are sure you will not use the address again. If you want to redirect traffic to the new blog, you can keep the address and purchase the Site Redirect upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/
