  Dear WordPress,
  I also own domainname’x’.com

  Now I would like to also have domainname’x’.wordpress.com, but the site tells me that it is reserved. What does this mean?

  Thank you

  When we register a username account the matching blog is reserved for our future use. It cannot be obtained by anyone other than the person who has registered the matching username account.

  As you have registered the matching username account the blog is reserved for you and you can register it
  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  However, if you changed your username then the blog URL will not be available for use under the new username account.
