Osiris is not the name used by the Egyptians, but the version applied by the Greeks, who could not pronounce the unfamiliar Egyptian consonants.
In the ancient Egyptian language, Osiris was known as Wsir or 3sir, where the letters 3 and i are consonants, not vowels. It uses the hieroglyphs of an eye and a throne (or sometimes an eye and a a carrying chair) and the name means "he of the throne" in the same way that the Egyptian version of Isis means "she of the throne".
The use of the eye hieroglyph is unexplained and it can not be read literally as part of the name.
