  Hi there,

  If you are referring to a username:

  “Once you change your username you will not be able to change it back and the old name will not be available for you or anyone to use. If you just want to show your name differently please only change your Display Name.”

  See here for more information:

  If you are referring to a previous address/URL:

  “Sites already deleted by their authors two or more years ago may become available again, if they present no username or other technical conflicts.”
