סטברוס
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is סטברוס. Stavros is a Greek name for boys that comes from Greek: the word “stavros” means “cross”. Today this name is found mostly in Greece and Cyprus. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 337. That number points to Torah page 337 of 354 — in the portion Ki Tavo. What that portion is about: “When you enter”: the first fruits and the declaration; the stones on Mount Ebal; blessings and admonitions. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Stavros” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: סטברוס. 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 סטברוס gives 337.

The number 337, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 337 in the book of Devarim (Deuteronomy).
The verse this place falls on is Devarim (Deuteronomy) 26:5:
וְעָנִיתָ וְאָמַרְתָּ לִפְנֵי ה׳ אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֲרַמִּי אֹבֵד אָבִי וַיֵּרֶד מִצְרַיְמָה וַיָּגָר שָׁם בִּמְתֵי מְעָט וַיְהִי־שָׁם לְגוֹי גָּדוֹל עָצוּם וָרָב
And thou shalt speak and say before HaShem thy G-d: 'A wandering Aramean was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there, few in number; and he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.
This is from the portion Ki Tavo. What it is about: “When you enter”: the first fruits and the declaration; the stones on Mount Ebal; blessings and admonitions.
The same number, 337, is given by these Tanakh names:
Saul שאול
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) — 337.
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 31. A Torah word with the same number is אל — “to, toward” (Genesis 1:9).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 67. A Torah word with the same number is אבידן — “Abidan, chief of Benjamin” (Numbers 1:11).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1374.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 47321.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1085.
The letters that come out are חנשגפח — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 449. A Torah word with the same number is כמשפט — “according to the custom” (Genesis 40:13).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1593.
The number 337 appears in the classical books 3 times across 2 works. The earliest mention is פרי עץ חיים (~1573).
The name סטברוס 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
Neither the Pentateuch nor the whole Tanakh has a verse that begins with ס and ends with ס. That happens with some letter pairs and means nothing in itself.
The full message
Every letter of the name explained, the words and namesakes with references, the Hebrew date, the letter and tribe of the month, day 861 of your life (±1), the psalm by age, the attestations from the classical books — a PDF sent to your email.
The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 337. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.

Your name's day

וְעָנִיתָ וְאָמַרְתָּ לִפְנֵי ה׳ אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֲרַמִּי אֹבֵד אָבִי וַיֵּרֶד מִצְרַיְמָה וַיָּגָר שָׁם בִּמְתֵי מְעָט וַיְהִי־שָׁם לְגוֹי גָּדוֹל עָצוּם וָרָב

«And thou shalt speak and say before HaShem thy G-d: 'A wandering Aramean was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there, few in number; and he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.»

Devarim (Deuteronomy) 26:5 · 337 / 354

Half of all names have such a day.

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.
