  Hi lizzydeblock,

  It seems that you might not be able to do so yourself since lizzydeblock.wordpress.com is now a reserved name.

  I’ve tagged this topic for a Staff follow-up. They might be able to help you change your blog’s address easily.

  Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond, and please be patient while waiting.

  When we register a username account the matching blog is reserved for our future use. It cannot be obtained by anyone other than the person who has registered the matching username account.

  As you have that matching username account https://en.forums.wordpress.com/profile/lizzydeblock then the blog is reserved for you and you ought to be able to log in appropriately and register it.

  However, if you changed your username then the blog URL will not be available for use under the new username account.
