  There is no recycling blog names. Once you delete a blog URL it can never be used again. I suggest that you change the blog visibility settings to “ptivate” and use the blogs as back-up. You can periodically export your content out of the wordpress.org blog and import it into the wordpress.com blogs to keep them as current back-ups.
