When typing in the name, don’t use your mouse at all, the name field is already highlighted when you try to edit a site, so just start typing the new name you want and then just hit the “enter” key on your keyboard alone.
As for the top sites showing old websites you can to try to restore all your frequently visited sites. First make sure your top sites is set to show frequently visited sites.
Then try to delete one of the sites and then click “restore all” from the banner that comes up. Then visit the site you’d like to add (make sure you are going directly to the site URL you want, and not just searching for it and clicking a link from the search results) and come back to the new tab, and delete unwanted sites until the one you want comes up, then try editing it like I said above.
You might need to refresh the new tab page to see the site you visited show up.
Remember to swap back the top sites back to showing favorite sites and not frequently visited ones after editing the site you want.
Hopefully this will work until Brave fixes the issue.
