Hello, I have done all the things in the above list and re-indexed the main page, but in the search results, the site address is listed instead of the site name.
I wanted to see if we can use the Google JavaScript code to introduce the site name to Google. If possible, how should I do this?

Hello,
That json structure is already applied to your website once you have modified the Local SEO settings.
Please note that Google uses a machine learning algorithm to generate the sitename for your pages based on other information it has collected about your website and your industry.
I would suggest to keep on mentioning the desired title on both the title of the page and the schema structure (which our plugin automatically adds after configuring the Local SEO settings in Rank Math > Titles & Meta).
Lastly, please go through the Google guidelines about the site name to help you increase the chances of displaying the desired site name on the SERP: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/site-names
And here’s our official guide for it: https://rankmath.com/kb/display-site-name-in-search-results/
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need my assistance with anything else.
