The name Shelomith in Hebrew letters is שלמית. 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.
שלמית
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is שלמית. A Tanakh name: five Israelite men and three Israelite women (first in Leviticus 24:11; 7 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “peaceableness”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 780 — the same as the Torah word תפש, “to handle, seize”. That number points to Torah page 72 of 354 — in the portion Miketz. What that portion is about: Pharaoh's dreams of seven cows and seven ears; Joseph rules Egypt; the brothers come for grain; the cup in Benjamin's sack. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 15:14. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Shelomith” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: שלמית. 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) — 780. A Torah word with the same number is תפש — “to handle, seize” (Genesis 4:21).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 15. A Torah word with the same number is זוב — “to flow” (Exodus 3:8).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 78. A Torah word with the same number is לחם — “bread, food” (Genesis 3:19).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 2895.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 252600.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 2160.
The letters that come out are בכימא — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 73. A Torah word with the same number is גמל — “camel” (Genesis 12:16).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 940. A Torah word with the same number is צמיתת — “permanence, perpetuity” (Leviticus 25:23).
The number 780 appears in the classical books 2 times across 2 works. The earliest mention is בני יששכר מאמרי חודש כסלו טבת (~1830).

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 שלמית these are ש and ת. The Pentateuch has 17 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 15:14:
שמעו עמים ירגזון חיל אחז ישבי פלשת
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.
The name שלמית has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 780 is not among them. Half of all names are like this — neither good nor bad, just a fact of counting.
Add a date of birth and the verse of meeting from that week's portion is added to the reading.
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.
