So you didn't use svn import, you created a directory in the repository, then you checked out that directory to an existing local directory, then you did svn add on the files in the local directory? (That's what's described in the link you provided.) That should work. Are you sure you followed those steps? Have you browsed the repository to check that the files were added?

Are you saying that you need the local files to be in a directory having a certain name? You don't have to delete anything. Just rename the existing local directory, then create a new one with the old name and check out to it.
