In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is רוזי. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 223 — the same as the Torah word חירה, “Hirah the Adullamite”. That number points to Torah page 223 of 354 — in the portion Bamidbar. What that portion is about: The census in the desert: 603,550 men; the order of the camps around the Tabernacle; the Levites and their service. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 16:29. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Rosie” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: רוזי. 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.

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) — 223. A Torah word with the same number is חירה — “Hirah the Adullamite” (Genesis 38:1).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 16. A Torah word with the same number is אחז — “to seize” (Genesis 22:13).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 43. A Torah word with the same number is גם — “also” (Genesis 3:6).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 899.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 40185.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 842.
The letters that come out are גפעמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 193. A Torah word with the same number is וצמאון — “and thirsty ground” (Deuteronomy 8:15).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 609. A Torah word with the same number is תחרא — “coat of mail” (Exodus 28:32).
The number 223 appears in the classical books 5 times across 5 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 רוזי 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 רוזי these are ר and י. The Pentateuch has 2 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 16:29:
ראו כי ה׳ נתן לכם השבת על כן הוא נתן לכם ביום הששי לחם יומים שבו איש תחתיו אל יצא איש ממקמו ביום השביעי
This is from the portion Beshalach. What it is about: The parting of the sea and the song of Moses and Miriam; manna and quail; water from the rock; the war with Amalek.
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.
