Completely Delete Xcode project and all references?

Every time I try to delete my project, and create a new one under the previous name that i deleted, the icons and references are still there. I can't seem to fully delete it then start again with the same name. Any help is appreciated.

Using: Xcode 4

To delete these archive data in Xcode, select Window > Organizer > Archives from top menu. Then press delete to remove them.

Close the project then delete it with Finder. Open Xcode's Organizer window (Cmd-Shift-2) and click the Projects tab. Find and delete the project from that list. Close the organizer than try creating your project again.

Also, file a bug report at http://bugreport.apple.com - this shouldn't be necessary but I have seen it before (in 4.0 betas).
