Google appending brand name to titles (not in HTML / RankMath)

Hi,

I’m seeing a strange behavior on a relatively new WordPress site.

In the page source, I have:

<title>Local Digital Marketing Agency (38)</title>

No brand name in the title.

I’m using RankMath and all titles are customized.

However, in Google results, all pages are displayed like:

So Google is appending the site name globally, even though it’s not present in the HTML.

Technical setup:

This doesn’t happen on my older sites.

Is this normal behavior for newer domains?
Did it stabilize over time for you?
Any way to reduce this?

Thanks in advance.
