May I ask why would it matter if you purchased a domain name already, which replaces whatever __.wordpress.com address you had?

The problem is that it is now called getthatgovernmentjobdotcom.wordpress because Get That Government Job was already taken. Can I change the domain name to help people find my blog? Thanks for your help.

I'm unsure as to how I will be able to modify the information once I have moved.

There is always the chance that someone else could register your name in the interim so sooner is better.

My payment information, along with my current residence, will change. If I choose to purchase this right now, is there any way that I can subsequently modify my domain registration information to reflect the new circumstance that I will be in shortly? Or - is it just better to not register until I have already completed the moving process? I don't have any issue with this, as long as I know that my blog address is secure - meaning, that the name in my "wordpress.com" address will be available. I would appreciate any feedback on this matter. Thank you. - Brian
