Creating a Cloud Service in Windows Azure gives the error The Specified URL is already in use

I am attempting to create a new cloud service on https://manage.windowsazure.com.

No matter what url I enter, I get the same error saying "The Specified URL is already in use"

enter image description here

It doesn't matter what I type in the URL box, it ALWAYS tells me that the URL is already in use. I have a hard time believing that this specific URL has already been used.

I've searched for an hour trying to find out why this is happening with no luck.

Any ideas?

Try removing the word "online" from your cloud service name. Your cloud service name can't contain some specific words/phrases and I believe "online" is one of them. I really don't know the reason as to why "online" is one of the phrases which is not allowed by Windows Azure. Here's the actual error (I tried creating the same through Azure Management Studio)
