  Hello there,
  You can switch to using a theme that does not display an author byline. This post lists themes created up to December 2011. There is a newer post that lists themes created from January 2012 through July 2014:

  Hi Timethief,
  Up until last month my blog name Nature’s Child was always there.
  I want my name but my blog to be on the site.

  I looked at all of the themes and mine is not on any of the lists.
  I am using Chateau Theme.

  Have you recently connected your Google+ Profile?

  The display name that appears on your posts and comments will display your Google+ Real Name (the name you have on your Google+ Profile). If you change your name on Google+ you will need to disconnect and reconnect from WordPress.com to update it here. Note that disconnecting your site from Google+ will revert the name shown on your posts and comments to the display name selected in your WordPress.com Settings.

  Looking at the bottom of this post, http://natureschild122.wordpress.com/2014/08/19/the-painter/ I see your Google+ profile. (<a href=”

  Check in your site’s Sharing>Publicize Dashboard and see if you G+ profile is connected. If so, you can disconnect it by clicking the red x next to the word “Connected”.

  Sorry for the goofed link for the screenshot. Clicking on it will get you to it nonetheless.

  Linking to your G+ profile (even if you don’t use it) is what causes this. Disconnect, don’t use Publicize to G+, and manually share links to G+.
