  To make sure you know what I´m talking about.. when I make a new blog, I have to take a name (before … wordpress.com) and there I wanted to take lataniki again, but I can´t. Eventhough I deleted the other one.
  Thank you, kind regards, Lataniki

  Hey there,

  Once you’ve deleted a WordPress.com site, the name is not retrievable. Sorry about that. It’s part of the warning when you delete a site.

  You will have to create your new site with a brand new name.

  You can do that here:

  Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks much!

  Hey, thanks for your answer. I know that I can´t return it again, but I didn´t know that I can´t take the name again after it´s deleted. Will the name lataniki will ever be available again? thanks again

  Hi there!

  Sorry, no, it won’t be available ever again. The only thing you can do is find another name that is close…or go in another direction altogether with the site name.

  I have one other solution — it’s only if you want to upgrade to a custom domain name. I don’t like to push upgrades on people, but just wanted you to be aware of it. It looks like the domain name lataniki.com is open. You could register a custom domain name for your WordPress.com site.

  Entirely up to you, of course, but a solution if you’re attached to the name.

  Here’s some information about custom domains:

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
