Votre nom
Vous n'avez pas choisi votre nom. On vous l'a donné — presque toujours en l'honneur de quelqu'un qui vous a précédé.
Le nombre de votre nom est 296. Autant que le mot de la Torah צור — « a cliff ».
Le verset de votre nom
Il n'existe pas dans le Pentateuque de verset commençant par ר et se terminant par נ. L'usage permet de chercher dans tout le Tanakh — nous ne comptons pour l'instant que la Torah.

Roman — The customary Hebrew spelling of this name. If your name is spelled differently, correct the Hebrew spelling and the report is recomputed.
רומן
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is רומן. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 296 — the same as the Torah word צור, “a cliff”. That number points to Torah page 296 of 354 — in the portion Devarim. What that portion is about: Moses begins his address in the plains of Moab: judges, spies, forty years of wandering, the victories over Sihon and Og. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. There are no predictions or judgments here — only the text of the Torah and arithmetic you can check.
Adding up the letters of the name רומן gives 296.
296
The number 296 is the Torah word צור — «a cliff» (Exode 17:6).
The number 296, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 296 in the book of Devarim (Deutéronome). These are its opening words:
עשו הישבים בשעיר והמואבים הישבים בער עד אשר …
The verse this place falls on is Devarim (Deutéronome) 2:29:
כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ־לִי בְּנֵי עֵשָׂו הַיֹּשְׁבִים בְּשֵׂעִיר וְהַמּוֹאָבִים הַיֹּשְׁבִים בְּעָר עַד אֲשֶׁר־אֶעֱבֹר אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּן אֶל־הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר־ה׳ אֱלֹהֵינוּ נֹתֵן לָנוּ
This is from the portion Devarim. What it is about: Moses begins his address in the plains of Moab: judges, spies, forty years of wandering, the victories over Sihon and Og.
The same number, 296, is given by these biblical names:
צור · רמון · אחיעזר · עכור
Nine 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) — 946.
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 17. A Torah word with the same number is טוב — “good” (Genèse 1:4).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 53. A Torah word with the same number is אבן — “a stone” (Genèse 2:12).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1156.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 44136.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 948. A Torah word with the same number is מרחשת — “a stewpan” (Lévitique 2:7).
The word that comes out is גפיט. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 102. A Torah word with the same number is בעל — “a master” (Genèse 14:13).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 708.
The number 296 appears in the classical books 9 times across 8 works. The earliest mention is מדרש לפירושים (~1450?).
The name רומן 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 no verse in the Pentateuch that begins with ר and ends with נ. That happens with some letter pairs and means nothing in itself.
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.
