  I used or typed the wrong name when I established the wordpress.com name – I used kattraxx, when it should have been (email visible only to moderators and staff). How do I change?

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

  To chnage your username see here please and read at least twice before proceeding > http://en.support.wordpress.com/change-your-username/ Note you can change the display name.

  But it sounds to me that it’s the email address you want to change.

  You have two separate email address settings at WordPress.com.

  Blog notifications for the admin (like comment moderation, Likes, new subscriptions, etc) are sent to the email address at Settings -> General in the Dashboard.

  Personal notifications (like comments on your post, subscription emails, and upgrade renewals) are sent to the email address at Users -> Personal Settings in the Dashboard.

  Try changing it at http://wordpress.com/#!/settings/ first.

  If that doesn’t work, try Users -> Personal Settings in your blog’s Dashboard.

  Note: After the change you will receive an confirmation email. Please be sure to check your spam/junk mail filter in your email client, if you cannot locate it.
