I own erinschultz.com thru register.com, would like the domain to appear the same

Hi — I’d like this wordpress site to remain ‘erinschultz.com’ — if I transfer the domain to wordpress, will it appear as ‘erinschultzcom.wordpress.com’? The domain is currently under register.com. Please advise the best way of going about this. Thx — Erin
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

WordPress.com provides free blogs and hosts them free of charge. There are no bandwidth charges. All WordPress.com blogs come with 3000 megabytes (~3 GBs) of space for storing uploaded files and images. Free features are listed here https://en.wordpress.com/features/
We have 4 different plans: free, personal, premium and business. All hosting is free regardless of which plan you choose. You can view all wordpress.com plan features here https://wordpress.com/pricing/ Add a plan for each of your sites here: http://store.wordpress.com/plans/.
We don’t currently support incoming domain transfers to WordPress.com. Instead, the domain can be ‘mapped’ to your WordPress.com site with domain mapping:

You will need an upgraded WordPress.com plan, such as the Personal plan. Each paid plan includes a free domain credit which you can use to map a domain you already own (or register a new one).

Go to My Site ->Plans and buy the Personal Plan, and then you can go back and claim your free domain at My Site ->Domains ->Add.
