  Hi there,

  Do you want to use your Namecheap domain with your WordPress.com site at http://big413com.wordpress.com/?

  To do that, go to Upgrades ->Plans and upgrade to a paid plan, and then add our domain connection upgrade to add the domain here:

  https://wordpress.com/en/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/

  For your Google Workspace email to continue working you have two options:

  1) You can add the DNS records for your email here. That way, once you point the domain’s name servers to us, those will already be in place on our end so the email will continue working:

  https://wordpress.com/en/support/add-email/add-email-through-google-workspace/

  2) Rather than changing your name servers, you can just point your domain to our IP addresses by adding A records to your DNS at Namecheap. The Domain Connection page I linked above explains where you can find your site’s IP addresses once you’ve added that upgrade. Namecheap support will be able to help you add the A records to point your domain to those IPs.
