name change
-
Hi, Ive been trying to decide what I want my blog name to be, I want my blog and my instagram to be the same, or very similar if that is not possible. but I see that I cant use an old one I had? do I have to wait a certain amount of time or I can never again use that one?

Hey there,
do I have to wait a certain amount of time or I can never again use that one
If it’s been more than 30 days, the old one is permanently closed. But if you want to use a similar name again, you’re welcome to use it with one of our .blog subdomains: https://wordpress.com/blog/2018/11/28/announcing-free-dotblog-subdomains/
Hope that helps! Let us know if you have questions.

Permanently closed as in it can be used again? I changed my username but now I want to change it back…
-
What was the URL of the site you’re trying to recover?
It might still be in the grace period.

Hi there,
I have restored that address back to your account. Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with.
-
It doesn’t show up as being restored. It’s still set as wildandfreeemily.Wordpress.com so when I tried to change it to wildemilybee it said it’s taken. So I’m not sure what to do? I tried to login with it but it wouldn’t let me do that either.

https://wildemilybee.wordpress.com is restored to your account.
Sites cannot be changed to existing or deleted sites, so you will need to export https://wordpress.com/support/export/ and import your content manually: https://wordpress.com/support/import/#import-content-from-another-word-press-site

Okay but I can’t figure out how to get access to it, because when I try to log in it says the account has been closed.

It’s under the account you’re currently logged in to, just visit https://wordpress.com/posts/wildemilybee.wordpress.com
