  I tried to change my blog address and instead it created a new one. I cannot figure out how to delete the new one and just change the address of my original one. It will not let me change the address because now it already exists.

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

  If you want to change the .wordpress.com blog address ie. the URL starting with http:// then you must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog to do that and the URL you desire must be available. If so, then you can change the URL by using this guide

  Changing a URL is a permanent and irreversible act. No changed or deleted blog URLs are recycled here, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.
