    Hello @natalysastyle,

    From your Dashboard, go to My Blogs. You’re going to see a page with your blog(s) listed. Hover on the blog you want to change the name, and a number of options will appear.
    Click on ‘Change Blog Address ‘ and follow the instructions from there.

    Hope it’s all clear, and if you get stuck at any step, just let me know and I’ll be glad to help :)

    Hi @stefaniamattana,
    Than you for the respond and help.
    I plaid a few days ago and tried to change name and by mistake I opened a second blog. So I wanted to change my primary blog name to what is in secondary and just to have only one blog.
    I wanted to transfer my first blog to to secondary blog and I always get this message,
    “You cannot transfer to that user. “
    Thank you
    What should I do?

    Hi @natalyastyle,

    The message says this because you own both blogs, so there is nothing to transfer.

    What you can do is to export the content of your first blog and import it to your second new blog. This way, your first blog will be emptied out and the new one will have all the content of the blog No1.

    In order to do that you can follow these step-by-step guide to:

    1. Exporting your data from blog No1: https://en.support.wordpress.com/export/
    2. Importing the data of blog No1 to blog No2: https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/

    As I said above, if you need any help don’t hesitate to ask!
