The number of your name

Clovis (קלוביס) — The name Clovis comes from Old Germanic hlod + wig, “fame and fight”.
And the same number belongs to the Torah word יצחק — “Isaac, son of Abraham”.

Your word in the Torah

The word יצחק — “Isaac, son of Abraham” — has the same number as your name. Here is the verse where it first appears:

ויפל אברהם על פניו ויצחק ויאמר בלבו הלבן מאה שנה יולד ואם שרה הבת תשעים שנה תלד
Genesis 17:17

The verse of your name

Neither the Pentateuch nor the whole Tanakh has a verse that begins with ק and ends with ס. That happens with some letter pairs and means nothing in itself.

The week you were born

Add your date of birth and we will show which portion the world was reading the week you appeared, and whether it holds a word of your number.

How to read your number

Fact. The letters of the name קלוביס add up to 208. Plain addition — you can check it yourself.

Meaning. There is a Torah word with the same number — יצחק (“Isaac, son of Abraham”). A matching sum does not mean the word is 'about you'; it is a reason to look at what in it matters to you.

Story. יצחק — this name has the same sum, 208. The Talmud tells that Isaac looked so much like Abraham that everyone saw he was his son. (Bava Metzia 87a)

A question for yourself. What in this do you recognise in yourself — and what would you like to strengthen?

Practice. This week: open the verse of your name, read it slowly three times and write down one thought that stays with you.

קלוביס
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is קלוביס. The name Clovis comes from Old Germanic hlod + wig, “fame and fight”. Clovis I became king of the Franks in 481. Later the same name turned into the French name Louis. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 208 — the same as the Torah word יצחק, “Isaac, son of Abraham”. That number points to Torah page 208 of 354 — in the portion Emor. What that portion is about: Laws of the priests; animals without blemish; the calendar of festivals — from the Sabbath to Sukkot; the lamp and the showbread. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Clovis” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: קלוביס. Spelled by the Academy of the Hebrew Language rules for foreign names. If your name is spelled differently, correct the Hebrew spelling and the report is recomputed.
Adding up the letters of the name קלוביס gives 208.
208
The number 208 is the Torah word יצחק — «Isaac, son of Abraham» (Genesis 17:19).

✓ Verify

This number is shared with 5 other name(s) out of the 2,980 in the index.

The number 208, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 208 in the book of Vayikra (Leviticus).
The verse this place falls on is Vayikra (Leviticus) 23:39:
אַךְ בַּחֲמִשָּׁה עָשָׂר יוֹם לַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי בְּאָסְפְּכֶם אֶת־תְּבוּאַת הָאָרֶץ תָּחֹגּוּ אֶת־חַג־ה׳ שִׁבְעַת יָמִים בַּיּוֹם הָרִאשׁוֹן שַׁבָּתוֹן וּבַיּוֹם הַשְּׁמִינִי שַׁבָּתוֹן
Howbeit on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruits of the land, ye shall keep the feast of HaShem seven days; on the first day shall be a solemn rest, and on the eighth day shall be a solemn rest.
This is from the portion Emor. What it is about: Laws of the priests; animals without blemish; the calendar of festivals — from the Sabbath to Sukkot; the lamp and the showbread.
The same number, 208, is given by these Tanakh names:
Isaac יצחק · Pinchas פינחס · Hagar הגר
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) — 208. A Torah word with the same number is יצחק — “Isaac, son of Abraham” (Genesis 17:19).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 19. A Torah word with the same number is גוי — “nation” (Genesis 10:5).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 64. A Torah word with the same number is נטה — “to stretch out, pitch” (Genesis 12:8).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1034.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 14640.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 860. A Torah word with the same number is נתתי — “I have given” (Genesis 1:29).
The letters that come out are דכפשמח — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 452. A Torah word with the same number is תבן — “straw” (Genesis 24:25).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 824. A Torah word with the same number is תחתיו — “in his place” (Genesis 36:33).
The number 208 appears in the classical books 49 times across 20 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).
The name קלוביס does not stand as a word in the Pentateuch — as with most names, including many Tanakh names from the later books.

«Howbeit on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruits of the land, ye shall keep the feast of HaShem seven days; on the first day shall be a solemn rest, and on the eighth day shall be a solemn rest.»

Vayikra (Leviticus) 23:39 · 208 / 354

How it is counted

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.
