  Hello,
  I am developping new blogs by themes. I would like to create one about dragons and meditations, that I would call dragons.wordpress.com . It is written that it is unavailable though when I go there, I find an empty blog. I did the same for archangel.wordpress.com, with 1 lonely post from 2005 . Is it possible to have them available ?
  Thanks for all, what you provide us with is great and help me help me evolve spiritually in France.

  Howdy,

  I’m sorry, but we do not reuse or reassign blog names on WordPress.com.

  If you like, you can attempt to contact the owner of that blog and ask them if they would like to transfer it to you. You can do this by either leaving them a message using a contact form if it exists, or leaving a comment on an existing page or post requesting they contact you.

  If you are able to reach the blog owner and they are willing to transfer the blog to you, here are the instructions they can use to do that.

  If they do not respond or refuse the transfer, you will need to select a different name for your WordPress.com blog.

  Keep in mind we also offer an upgrade for custom domain names and you can use any WordPress.com blog URL underneath a custom domain. For more details about how domain mapping works:
