  I want to remove a wordpress.org site so I can set one up on wordpress.com. I have been experimenting with a blog on my own webspace for my wife, but think it will be better if she starts with WordPress.com. WordPress tells us the name is taken, because I used it on the dummy site. Can I delete my site, so she can start afresh with WordPress.com?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Just to say the blog I want help with IS NOT the one mentioned above.

  Is the wp.com name reserved or taken? Don’t delete anything: deleting is permanent and cannot be undone.

  What is the URL of the wp.com name/site you want to use?

  Going back to WordPress page it had set up the new .com blog! Must have tried to create it twice, hence error message. Thanks for helping.
