Have you read https://help.github.com/en/articles/why-are-my-commits-linked-to-the-wrong-user? If so, please clearly explain what you're still confused about. – ChrisGPT was on strike Mar 10 '19 at 19:35

At least, try and change your git config user.name
to what you want to see (assuming you are the one making those commits).
Then make a new commit, push and see that the commit name you have underlined has indeed changed.
If that applies, then you can reset the author name for past commits if you want.
A git push --force
will be required.
