I would equate the name of God to His character and reputation. It is the same as praising God Himself, but while remembering specifics about Him. The different names of God in the OT is a good place to start. He is creator, healer, commander of armies, etc.
I usually read Matthew 6:10 like this: Your kingdom come/Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. That means God's kingdom comes when His will is done, whether that occurs in heaven or on earth. This could be an appearance of Hebrew parallelism where the same concept is stated twice in different ways in order to better illustrate the concept. What happens if everyone on the earth carries out God's will? God's rule is on display.
Thy kingdom come does hint at the bodily return of Christ. That is the completion of the kingdom of God, when Christ rules as king physically on the earth. This is why I am premillennial, because several places in the Bible describe this scene in vivid detail.
