  Hi,

  I sent an e-mail on January 28th asking if it would be possible to know if the blog name uruki could be “un-reserved” because when creating a new blog it says now that uruki is reserved but not in fact it doesn’t exist and I would like to have this name.

  Can you help me, please?

  Thanks a lot!

  Howdy,

  That address is reserved, so you’ll need to choose a different address.

  Keep in mind that you could always register a custom domain name (example.com) for your blog:

  But what does it mean that it is reserved? It’s not the same as it is when it is in use, is it?

  It’s most likely being reserved for someone with the matching username.

  You’re welcome to choose a different address, or use a custom domain. Custom domains don’t need to match .wordpress.com addresses, so you could look for one with “uruki” in it. :-)
