SUMMARY I don't use preset user folders such as Downloads and set that one to my home user directory/folder (for example /home/user). When I open another tab, the tabs call home directory Downloads instead of normal path or name. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set Downloads to home user directory/folder, in this example /home/user. 2. Open another /home/user directory tab. OBSERVED RESULT Calls /home/user Downloads. EXPECTED RESULT Call the /home/user its path or main name (home).

IIUC you have set the XDG dir download to ~, but now ~ is called "Downloads" in dolphin UI. Simple workaround that should work: delete the "Downloads" folder from the dolphin places panel. Does it work for you ?
I saw no way to delete it, but was able to edit it though now tabs don't call it what I edited to (home) just the path, which is fine.

Hidding it then might be enough. Or edit file "~/.local/share/user-places.xbel" and remove the downloads bookmark section.
It was hidden in the first place. I don't know if it's safe to edit that file, but I guess I could make a backup and delete all the locations.
I don't reproduce the issue in KDE Neon. Do you have xdg-user-dir installed ? Did you use system-settings to change the Download folder path ? I wonder if it is because of your distro.
