Changing blog url

  When creating a new blog I am asked to define it’s address. Next to it is written “Choose an address for your blog. Don’t worry, you can change this later.’

  The issue is: I can’t change it later. I went through all settings and couldn’t find anything on that. Even looking on forum here I found similar topics but still different so my issue wasn’t clearly addressed. So how can I change this address? It is later and I can’t change it. I wasn’t worrying at the beginning as suggested but now it seems that the advise was premature… I assume that proper addresses or subsites will be automatically updated, so instead for example abc.worpress.com/about-me, when I change abc to xyz, link will change into xyz.wordpress.com/about-me.

  At the moment to fix this issue I must set a new blog, copy existing articles and delete the old blog with wrong url.
