  It’s not a thus. Those are different. You change the title of your blog in Options>General>Blog name.

  You can change your url with the domain mapping upgrade:

  Do you want to change it to another wordpress url (ie. newblog.wordpress.com</strong) or to your own domain (ie. yourblog.com)? If it’s the first, that’s not possible with our blogs; you can’t change the url once the blog has been created.

  You can do the second by purchasing a domain and the domain mapping upgrade, which is $15 through WordPress. The FAQ below should be able to help you with that. Hope that helps.

  Sorry, ella. You beat me to it! (And looks like I missed the bold tag to boot. Whoops.)
