Currently the brand is not shown. I duplicate the same information on name just to make it show in OSM Carto.

Thanks for the suggestion, this is a duplicate of #1874 for amenity=fuel, of #698 regarding shop=*.

See also #4575 and #4629 regarding additional context of brand labeling in this style.

How do you suggest we tag fuel stations and shops?

What my preferred tagging scheme would be is not of interest here. What you indicate to do, recording a brand (a class identifier selected by a business for marketing purposes, as discussed in #4575 (comment)) in the name tag (which by wide consensus records a proper name of the feature in question) is not a good idea.

The question if and how we should label features in OSM-Carto, especially also features which might not have a proper name (noname=yes) needs to be discussed for the specific features and that is a matter for the issues i linked to.
