It sounds like a machlokes. On ywn, it says Chaim Ovadiah Yosef ben Georgia.( I believe it’s like the state Georgia, because that’s how the Sephardim pronounce Gimmel.) On other websites like matzav it says Chaim Ovadiah ben Georgia. Yosef is his family name, so in my opinion it would not be part of it. But however I have seen many bulletins say Chaim Ovadiah Yosef ben Georgia.
