  I want to change the name of my blog from fatlittleboy to fatlittleboyslim – how do I do that? I changed it under settings but it doesn’t appear to have changed. I also want to change the URL to the new name. Help!

  To change it, you will need to create a new site with the subdomain name you wish. Export the the data under Tools and upload it to the new site and set it up with the Theme and look and feel you wish. You cannot change the URL on WordPress.com sites.

  Thanks.

  Actually, you can now, but it basically deletes the old site, loses all the pagerank, and sometimes loses the followers. http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/
