This is a Yiddish Jewish name it’s a old name that has been in our community for long, it’s a new name to the nations and you are all trying to claim it as your own, it’s like a non Muslim walking around and introducing himself as Mohamed lol what a joke. My great grandmother was Roza and she was a holocaust survivor, it’s a very common Jewish name all around the world especially in usa in a specific sect , It’s a religous Jewish Yiddish name it come from the Yiddish word Red
