  You must be logged in under the exact same username account that created a blog to delete the blog. To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click.

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

  To change blog visibility to private instead go to > Settings > Reading. See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  Thank you! I have two blogs under one user name so I’m concerned that by deleting one – I will delete the whole thing.

  Every blog is independent and deleting one blog registered under the same username other blogs are registered under has no affect on them.
