  Is it the title that had the typo (i.e. “John Smith’s Great Website!”) or the URL (i.e. johnsmith.wordpress.com)?

  You cannot edit any URL. If you want to change the .wordpress.com blog address ie. the URL starting with http:// to another .wordpress.com blog address, then you must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog to do that, and the URL you desire must be available. If so then you can change the URL by using this guide http://en.support.wordpress.com/changing-blog-address/ Note that the change is permanent and irreversible.

  Timethief has given you the same advice I would have.

  Allow me to reiterate that once you change away from a URL, that URL cannot be used in the future for another blog. Not by you or by any other WordPress.com user. So if you need that URL for any future plans, we should do this a different way.
