Have you looked into the CtrlP plugin? You can use it to 'fuzzy find' files like you are describing and then I believe there are options to open them in a new split window, or tab, and probably other options.

Dear list:
assume i have two buffers in my vim session
1 abc.txt
2 xyz.txt
I am currently in buffer 1 abc.txt
I can use :b z and tab completion to open buffer 2 xyz.txt because vim is smart to determine that only buffer 2 has letter z in its name
now I want use :sp z to have the same smartness but it doesn't seem to work that way. I can only sp #2 to split the second buffer.
Could anyone share some ideas?
Thanks!
Jim.
