ארמנק
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is ארמנק. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 391 — the same as the Torah word ישועה, “salvation”. That number points to Torah page 37 of 354 — in the portion Chayei Sarah. What that portion is about: Sarah's death and the purchase of the cave of Machpelah; the servant seeks a wife for Isaac; Rebecca at the well; Abraham's death. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 31:53. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Armenak” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: ארמנק. 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 ארמנק gives 391.
391
The number 391 is the Torah word ישועה — «salvation» (Genesis 49:18).
And the man came into the house, and he ungirded the camels; and he gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men that were with him.
This is from the portion Chayei Sarah. What it is about: Sarah's death and the purchase of the cave of Machpelah; the servant seeks a wife for Isaac; Rebecca at the well; Abraham's death.
The same number, 391, is given by these Tanakh names:
Joshua יהושע
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) — 391. A Torah word with the same number is ישועה — “salvation” (Genesis 49:18).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 13. A Torah word with the same number is אחד — “one” (Genesis 1:5).
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) — 1731.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 54101.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1125.
The letters that come out are תגיטד — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 426. A Torah word with the same number is תוך — “midst, middle” (Genesis 1:6).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 993.
The number 391 appears in the classical books 7 times across 5 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The name ארמנק 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 a custom: at the end of the prayer one says a Torah verse that begins with the first letter of one's name and ends with its last. For ארמנק these are א and ק. The Pentateuch has exactly one such verse — Genesis 31:53:
אלהי אברהם ואלהי נחור ישפטו בינינו אלהי אביהם וישבע יעקב בפחד אביו יצחק
This is from the portion Vayetzei. What it is about: The dream of the ladder to heaven; Jacob with Laban: Leah and Rachel; eleven sons are born; the return.
«And the man came into the house, and he ungirded the camels; and he gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men that were with him.»
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.
