  Hi there,

  WordPress.com doesn’t support incoming domain transfer currently. Only you can do in order to use your domain on WordPress.com is mapping the domain to your WordPress.com site. Step-by-step instructions are here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/map-existing-domain/. In this case, you have to renew your domain every year on name.com so as not it to be expired.

  I hope this information helps you.
  Thanks :)
