name for a blog
-
Dear WordPress team,
i’d like to build a website using your platform. Unfortunately there’s already a blog with the name I’d like to have.
The blog is empty and i don’t find contacts to ask its owner if he or she needs it.
Could you please kindly help me out with it? Is there a way i could get the used name?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello there,
There is no expiration date on blogs unused, reserved or otherwise. If you can make contact on your own with the owner of an unused blog via a contact form or commenting, then providing the are agreeable there is a means of a consenting blog owner to transfer the blog to another username account. http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account
In the case that there is no contact information Staff will not breach the privacy policy and provide you with an email address.
If you are not successful, you can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/
Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
