  I wanted to change from forestoperando.wordpress.com to operando.wordpress.com.
  Apparently, it should work because all my demand has be registered. But in Google, it appears that the last adress is still here and the new one does’nt work. Thanks to let me know or transform…

  Hi there!

  I show the site address “operando.wordpress.com” already being in use by another user account. When a WordPress.com user signs up for an account we reserve the WordPress.com web address with their username so no one else can use it. So if they signed up for the username of exampleuser we would reserve exampleuser.wordpress.com for them.

  Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to unreserve it and you will need to choose a different name. Sorry about that!

  With any blog, you can also use a custom domain with the Domain Mapping upgrade.

  Let me know if you have any questions.
