אהובה
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is אהובה. A Hebrew name from the root ahav, “to love”; the word means “beloved”. It became a given name for girls in modern times and is used mostly in Israel. This is its Hebrew spelling. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 19 — the same as the Torah word גוי, “nation”. That number points to Torah page 19 of 354 — in the portion Lech Lecha. What that portion is about: “Go forth”: Abraham leaves Haran; the promise of land and offspring; the covenant between the pieces; circumcision. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 13:4. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Ahuva” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: אהובה. 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 אהובה gives 19.
