How can I remove websites from search dropdown

I like to change websites by typing the first letter in my search bar. The results seemed to be arranged by usage.

Today I powered up an old phone that had firefox sync enabled. Now my current phone received its bookmarks and history, and when I type a letter in my search bar the same seven websites from my old phone are the first results that show, no matter what letter I type.

I went to the old phone and cleared the history and recent everything but they didn't go away from my new phone.

How can I delete these from my new phone? Seems no way to edit the history or delete these entries without deleting it all.
