Hello there, this is definitely interesting and a completely normal request. From personal experience, I usually open a new tab and select the three dots in the top right corner of the page for further options. once the additional window opens select the settings option (this is normally located towards the bottom of the list) and from setting> Privacy, search, and services> Address bar and search from here you should see two related options you can adjust:

  1. Show me search and site suggestions using my typed characters
  2. Show me suggestions from history, favorites, and other data on this device using my typed characters

I hope this helps.

I completely understand how that can be annoying and regrettably at this time due to this issue being related to the search engine "Google" and not the device itself, I would recommend reaching out to Google support for further assistance if available. I included the link directly here: Support to proceed.
