  Since it’s reserved you need pick another one. Otherwise you could just buy it if you really want it.

  Hi elzrjose!

  Still confused. Right I’ve bought my domain name but…
  devikaponnambalam.com, as the primary domain for my site and will display in the address bar for devikaponna.wordpress.com – which is what I set it up as originally.
  How do I make them the same? thanks!
