  I registerded “trickhelps” a few minutes ago.
  But I found the rename option.
  And now, I want to change my existing wp address from “itsworlds.wordpress.com” to “trickhelps.wordpress.com”.
  I deleted (and confirmed) my new “trickhelps” and tried again to rename… But still it says “trickhelps” is existed…
  What can I do to rename my existing wp address from “itsworlds.wordpress.com” to “trickhelps.wordpress.com”.?

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

  http://trickhelps.wordpress.com is no longer available.
  The authors have deleted this site.

  Simply stated you can’t register any deleted blog URL because deleting any blog URL is a permanent and irreversible act, just as the multiple warnings required to accomplish site deletion clearly state. Once the verification link for deletion is clicked the blog URL is forever gone, gone, gone. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.

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

  Then if you wish to you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade because it does not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is when you are domain mapping.

  You cannot register any URL that you deleted or that anyone else deleted. Please do not make me have to tell you that again for the third time. http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made.
