  I’m not a big fan of having two blogs on one account. I wanted to delete one and recreate it on a completely separate account. If I do this, will I be able to use the same blog name, since I deleted the account?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi –

  You can’t delete any user accounts from WordPress.com.

  If you delete your site, you will not be able to use that specific domain again, ever. “Deleting a site permanently removes it and you’ll never be able to re-use its WordPress.com address”

  I would create another WordPress.com user account (it will have to be its’ own unique account) and then transfer the unwanted blog to that user account. Then you will have each blog under a different user account. Here’s how: https://en.support.wordpress.com/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

  Please let me know if you have more questions.
