  Dear WordPress support,

  Today I deleted my WordPress blog “uneminuteavecmanon.wordpress.com”, because I want to rename my new blog “manonaimelespaillettes” in order to have the same name as the blog I deleted.

  When I try to change the blog URL, there is an error saying that the name already exists… But it’s impossible cause I deleted it…

  Can you please change the blog URL ?

  Thank you a lot,
  Best regards

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

  No – you agreed that delete was gone forever – blog names are never recycled here even to the original owner – you will need to pick a new name or buy a custom domain name & domain mapping

  uneminuteavecmanon.wordpress.com is no longer available. The authors have deleted this site.

  As auxclass said: You cannot recover or register any deleted blog URL. Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  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.
