  I deleted my blog a while ago and would like to start it back up again using the same name. I didn’t see an option which would allow me to do this.

  I see in the information posted that wordpress does not allow other people to use domain names that were once used by someone else. Since it’s still me, using the same name (but one that was deleted), is it possible for me to renew the same username/blog name?

  Thanks.

  Deleted .wordpress.com blog URLs here are not recycled. See > http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/
  and http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.

  I’m sorry but there are 3 warnings and clicking a confirmation link in an email to delete a blog. You could try adding your middle name initial and registering another .wordpress.com URL.
