  I am trying to get a name for the blog in wordpress.com, and it tells me it is already used.
  However, when I type the URL, it tells me the blog does not longer exist.

  It says no longer available: WP doesn’t recycle blog URLs.

  If you delete a site you will not be able to get it back and no one else will be able to use that site address.
