  I want to change the site name – I haven’t purchased it yet, but I don’t want that name, but I can’t work out how to change it?

  Hi there,
  For change your site name, First go to WP Admin http://prntscr.com/tyxp4p
  Then, Click on Customize from Appearance http://prntscr.com/tyxr2e
  After that Click on Site Identity http://prntscr.com/tyxrs8
  Here you will get options for change Site Title, Tagline, etc. http://prntscr.com/tyxt0h

  Thanks.

  Hi there, can you let us know the address of the site you’re working on? Once we know that we can point you in the right direction for support.

  Keep in mind that this support forum assists users with free websites hosted on the WPcom platform. WPcom (where we are ) and WP are separate entities with different documentation and support forums. More information about the differences can be found here: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  @rakib8373, the instructions you shared are for changing the site title, not site address. Also, there’s no need to go through WP-admin to change those, you can go directly via My Site>Design>Customize>Site Identity.

  
  @apopinamillion, if your site is hosted with us, you can change the address as explained here:
