    Hi there,

    Are you talking about the footer down at the bottom of your page? If so, we ask that our users keep that intact. Even our VIP users have the footer which contains the WordPress.com and theme name in place.

    If you’d like, you can add to the footer and include some additional branding of your own. If you’re interested in that, I can help you out!

    Yes I am talking about the footer. We paid for theme. Their is no way to get rid of the theme name?

    While it’s possible to do so, we ask that you not do so. From our help article on Custom Design, which is the add-on which allows such changes:

    May I remove the Admin Bar, credit links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com’, theme, font, or toolbar links?

    All WordPress.com bloggers are required to maintain the Admin Bar (the dark bar that appears at the top of WordPress.com sites when logged in) as well as credit links in the footer, even our VIP bloggers. Please do not hide or alter text or links for the footer credits or the toolbar. Modifying the style of the footer text (i.e. colors and font size) is fine as long as it’s still readable. Using CSS, you can also add content like a copyright notice to the existing footer. If you would like to do that, you can ask in the CSS Customization forum and Staff or our community volunteers would be happy to help you do that.
