  The Site title and/or the optional Tagline can be changed on the top of this page at any time. > Settings > General
  “save changes”

  If you want to change the blog address ie. the URL starting with http:// then you must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog to do that by using this guide http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/ Read carefully first and proceed with caution.

  On the bottom of your Admin page you will find a link to the Learn WordPress.com blogging Tutorial prepared by Staff. http://learn.wordpress.com/

  The support documentation is all found at the Support link http://en.support.wordpress.com which is also on the bottom of your Admin page.

  Easier than changing your blog address, why not just sign up for a new blog? While you are logged in to WordPress.com use this link:
  https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/

  Sign up for the name you want (it is available), then set your empty http://amyimbody.wordpress.com/ blog to private. Don’t delete it: if it’s your name you may want to use it sometime in future. Or you may want to use it as a practice blog. If you delete the blog, then you’ll never be able to use that URL again.
