Use a deleted site name again?
-
I have been going about things all wrong and am now in the situation that I want to name my existing site the way one of my deleted sites was named. But when I try to rename my existing blog I keep getting the message that the site name is already taken, even though it is deleted. Is there anything I can do? I want to be able to get rid of the “2” in the name. Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Deleting a free hosted WordPress.com blog requires ignoring multiple warning messages clearly stating that URL deletion is permanent and irreversible. Not only that it requites using the verification link sent in the email and ignoring that same warning there too.
The deleted blog URL will not become available again. I’m sorry but 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.

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.
