Any idea why this happens? Is it because of Uxama? Not a big problem but very annoying.

Indeed.
It's because the Uxama issuer id is "usamus_gens".

Now that I know why, it's still annoying.

Hello,
Uxama Argaela is also showing up because its alternative name is "Usamus", in a similar manner as United States showing because their alternative name is "USA".
I agree it's annoying, as I expect that most people typing "USA" are looking for the United States and not Uxama Argaela. I made a change so that Uxama Argaela will not show up when typing exactly "USA".
