Html – Why my website name appearing on Google is the url?

I uploaded a website online made in HTML, CSS and JavaScript (without any framework or library like React, Next…). I figured that when I search for the website on Google, the url is showing as the website name (look image here).

I followed Google rules at this link: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/site-names, I added the following meta tag inside the head section in the HTML file:

<meta property="og:site_name" content="Mini Gingembre">

I also have several h1 tags with "Mini Gingembre" as content but this is not showing as the site name on Google, URL instead.

How can it be possible that Google engine didn’t find any way to identify the real site name with all these infos?

    When Google lists a page in search results, it shows the name of the site the page comes from. This is called the site name. Note that the site name is different from the per-page title links (title links are specific to each web page, whereas the site name is for the entire site).

    Google’s generation of site names on the Google Search results page is completely automated and takes into account content from a site’s home page and references to it that appear on the web.

    You can’t make that url field use a string, its googles name url people see instead of a long untidy name.
