Error importing excel in power bi desktop with error Model object names can not be empty

While importing a certain excel sheet in power Bi  I am having a certain error. I do not know what could be exactly wrong and how can it be fixed.

 

Error: Model object names can not be empty (Modellobjektnamen dürfen nicht leer sein.)

 

What exactly Modelobject mean in Power Bi
