  To do that means you will have to purchase a premium upgrade bundle that contains the custom upgrade so you can reduce the font size in the site title or make another CSS editing chnage that results in what you want. See here for details on purchasing the annually renewable Premium bundle that includes custom design and CSS editing capability:

  If you do purchase the Premium upgrade please use this link https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/css-customization#postform so you can copy and paste your text into a thread that will appear in the CSS Forum where you will get the help you need.

  Or change, at no cost, to a theme which doesn’t have an enormous header displaying the website title in gigantic header font. Most of them don’t.

  @beththemermaid,

  Here’s another website using the same theme, which displays the entire title and subtitle (tagline): https://goingoffmymeds.wordpress.com/.

  You might need to modify the size of the header image, particularly the height, to get it properly aligned for viewing the full title and tagline.

  Also, unless you can change the header title font size, you might also want to put spaces between the words of your title, shethrivesatsea, because presently the letters do not all fit on one line. In the example I provided above, the title appears as GOIN- GOFFMYMEDS, with only five characters in the top line. Odd line break.

  The way the software is programmed can cause grief when it comes to widows and orphans but before I get into that please read what follows.

  What you can do is go to > Settings > General and there on the Site Tile line you can add the spaces that are appropriate between all of the words.

  The result will be:

  she thrives
  at sea

  on two lines.

  The regular space between the last two words of a title is always turned to a non-breaking space by our software, to prevent “orphans” (single word as the last line of a paragraph). This happens no matter what the theme is.

  Edit: Site Tile line was meant to be Site Title line
