  I changed my account wordpress account name to the same address I wanted for my blog address, and when I try to enter my blog address it says it already exists.

  My old wordpress account was under my name, and when I even try and add my name as the blog address, it says it exists. Now I can’t enter my name or my new blog address that I wanted to have in.

  what do i do?

  You tell us specifically what blog addresses you are talking about.

  my older WP web address account was under sophiafantis.wordpress.com and I thought that the ‘web address’ was meant to be the blog address, which I then changed to tothewise.wordpress.com.

  Now when that I try to add either names as a blog address, it says it already exists, and when i enter both in the URL, it says they are no longer available. The authors have deleted this site.

  My current ‘web address’ that says this is ‘Shown publicly when you comment on blogs and in your Gravatar profile.’ is http://tothewise.wordpress.com;

  I want that to be my blog address. It was available, but don’t know what happened.

  Thanks
