How can I remove author name from Google Search Results?

The only way to have Google not use the data is to not provide it. Or at least remove any association between the author’s name and any author related HTML entity or attribute. For example, the link to an author’s page often includes rel="author". Any kind of structured data that specifies authorship certainly needs to be suppressed. Search through a page’s HTML source to ensure you’ve caught everything.

Once the data is removed, it could still take some time before Google stops using it in search results.

I’ve removed the links from single.php and single-post.php.

I hope it works.

There’s still enough references to “author” and “autor” in the HTML near your bio at the bottom of the page for Google to reasonably infer that you are the author and leave the reference in the title. Google really wants to list authors with the title, so you cannot give it any clues in this regard.

Even without any reference to “Autor” I think most people will get that you’re the author just by the placement and context. Hopefully Google isn’t as insightful ??

@prosperken, Could you please send a screenshot of your SERPS?
I’ve noticed that when the author name is equal as the website name/url Google will show it in the results page.

Let me know if you’ve any further question.
