The default Elasticsearch mapping for fields is a multi-mapping that is both `text` and `keyword`, and to differentiate these Elasticsearch adds `.keyword`. So one solution for you is to change your mappings in Elasticsearch and then re-index.

Another solution is to change the label for each visualization you create, in the "Advanced options" for the aggregation.
