גדור
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is גדור. A Tanakh name: the name of three Israelites (first in Joshua 15:58; 7 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “enclosure”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 213. That number points to Torah page 213 of 354 — in the portion Bechukotai. What that portion is about: “If you walk in My statutes”: blessings for faithfulness and admonitions; vows and valuations; the tithe. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Joel 1:20. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Gedor” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: גדור. 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.
Adding up the letters of the name גדור gives 213.

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) — 213.
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) — 33. A Torah word with the same number is גל — “heap of stones” (Genesis 31:46).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 832. A Torah word with the same number is נשבעתי — “I have sworn” (Genesis 22:16).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 40061.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 236. A Torah word with the same number is כיור — “basin, laver” (Exodus 30:18).
The letters that come out are רקפג — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 383. A Torah word with the same number is שבועה — “oath” (Genesis 24:8).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1039.
The number 213 appears in the classical books 14 times across 4 works. The earliest mention is עץ חיים (~1573).
The name גדור 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
The Pentateuch has no verse that begins with ג and ends with ר. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 8 such verses. The first of them is Joel 1:20:
גם בהמות שדה תערוג אליך כי יבשו אפיקי מים ואש אכלה נאות המדבר
