Things I've never searched on this site pop up in my search bar?

Whenever I click on the search bar, I get what resembles an autocomplete that pops up. There's only like 6 items, some I have searched on itch.io before, some I haven't but have on Google. It's kind of annoying, haha. I cleared my computer's history, and I'm fairly certain I cleared my cache and cookies right, but still no dice in getting rid of it. Anyone know what's causing it or have a suggestion for making it go away?

For reference, I've got Windows. Thanks!

It's because the search form input textbox name is the same as whatever name Google gave their search form input textbox. This is not a glitch. This is just standard coding operation. There's nothing to be afraid of or wary of here. Perfectly normal. As a web developer I see it all the time, even on my own websites. Nothing to be scared of. ;-)
