The name Ottiliya in Hebrew letters is אוטילייה. Below: how its number adds up, which page of the Torah it falls on and what verse stands there. Everything is computed, nothing is guessed.
אוטילייה
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is אוטילייה. The name probably comes from the old Germanic root “aud” (“od”), which means “wealth”. Otto I the Great, crowned emperor in 962, had a name from the same root. This form of the name is used in Germany. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 81 — the same as the Torah word אנכי, “I”. That number points to Torah page 81 of 354 — in the portion Vayigash. What that portion is about: Judah pleads for Benjamin; Joseph reveals himself to his brothers; Jacob goes down to Egypt; the family settles in Goshen. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 13:4. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Ottiliya” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: אוטילייה. A name from the Tanakh — its Tanakh spelling is used. If your name is spelled differently, correct the Hebrew spelling and the report is recomputed.
Adding up the letters of the name אוטילייה gives 81.
81
The number 81 is the Torah word אנכי — «I» (Genesis 3:10).
And Joseph said unto his brethren: 'I am Joseph; doth my father yet live?' And his brethren could not answer him; for they were affrighted at his presence.
This is from the portion Vayigash. What it is about: Judah pleads for Benjamin; Joseph reveals himself to his brothers; Jacob goes down to Egypt; the family settles in Goshen.
Other ways of counting
The tradition counts the same name in several ways. The main one is above: each letter is its number. The other eight are old and checkable too; each gives its own number, and many of them have a Torah word with the same number.
Final letters as 500–900 (mispar gadol) — 81. A Torah word with the same number is אנכי — “I” (Genesis 3:10).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 27. A Torah word with the same number is בכה — “to weep” (Genesis 21:16).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 63. A Torah word with the same number is חנה — “to encamp” (Genesis 26:17).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 352. A Torah word with the same number is קרבן — “offering” (Leviticus 1:2).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 1343.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 329. A Torah word with the same number is וארבעים — “and forty” (Genesis 7:4).
The letters that come out are תפנמכממצ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 760.
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 682. A Torah word with the same number is בירכתים — “at the rear” (Exodus 26:23).
The number 81 appears in the classical books 26 times across 15 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

For an engraving, a sign or a tattoo, show the spelling to someone who reads Hebrew: transliterating a name is a choice, not the only option.
The name אוטילייה does not stand as a word in the Pentateuch — as with most names, including many Tanakh names from the later books.
The verse of your name
There is a custom: at the end of the prayer one says a Torah verse that begins with the first letter of one's name and ends with its last. For אוטילייה these are א and ה. The Pentateuch has 49 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 13:4:
אל מקום המזבח אשר עשה שם בראשנה ויקרא שם אברם בשם ה׳
This is from the portion Lech Lecha. What it is about: “Go forth”: Abraham leaves Haran; the promise of land and offspring; the covenant between the pieces; circumcision.
Any name written in Hebrew letters is a number: אוטילייה = 81. And every date has a number of its own. There is a day in the year when the two coincide.
«And Joseph said unto his brethren: 'I am Joseph; doth my father yet live?' And his brethren could not answer him; for they were affrighted at his presence.»
Each Hebrew letter has a number; a word's number is their sum (alef 1 … tav 400). The page is the remainder modulo 354: the Torah divided into 354 pages of 861 letters, as the lunar year has 354 days. Everything can be checked by hand.
