  I made a blog called nakedfashions a while back and didn’t delete it properly so my new blog had to be called nakedfashionss with a double S. I now want to be the owner of my own domain but it to be called nakedfashions with a single S. How do I do this?

  The blog i want to permanently delete is http://nakedfashions.wordpress.com/

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

  This blog exists http://nakedfashions.wordpress.com/
  If you delete it the URL cannot be recycled.
  However, the content can be removed and the URL can be retained.

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

  Deleting a site permanently removes it and you’ll never be able to reuse its WordPress.com address. If you delete a blog you will not be able to get it back and no one else will be able to use that blog address. You must be sure you never want to use the blog again if you delete it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and must be clicked to delete a blog. If you clicked it and the blog was deleted it’s game over. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Delete blog content only – keep URL (blog address)
  You can quickly remove your contents by deleting them in bulk.
  bulk delete images & media http://en.support.wordpress.com/media/deleting-files/#bulk-deletion

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blogs and/or blog content does not remove any indexed items from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.
