Question

Is it possible to remove a name from my blocked list without unblocking them just so their name isn't showing at all?

Community Answer

No. If you remove a user from your blocked list, they will be unblocked and therefore can access your profile and interact with you. If you don't want certain people seeing your profile, consider setting it to friends only.
