  I’m sorry but deleted blog URLs cannot be recycled. That’s why it takes ignoring 3 warnings and then clicking a verfication link in an email in order to delete a blog.

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can register a domain vis a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
