Blog names are the same as usernames for the most part. Usernames can be turned into blog names, but blog names cannot be turned into usernames. You can register any other username and move your blog to it following the guide at http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account.

Now I'd like to register the username, but I get the error "Username already exists". I can neither log in to that account, (because it doesn't actually exist yet! just the domain), nor get a password for it. Am I missing something? Thanks!
