Mistake spotted.

Chibuzo means God carries the door.

Based on what my parents thought me, chi is God, bu means "is" or "carry" and uzo means "door" or "road"

I stand to be corrected

'bu uzo' in this context means 'comes first'. The proper meaning of that name would be '[My] chi (personal spirit/avatar) paves the way'.
