The name Bani in Hebrew letters is בני. Below: how its number adds up, which page of the Torah it falls on and what verse stands there. Everything is computed, nothing is guessed.
בני
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is בני. A Tanakh name: the name of five Israelites (first in 2 Samuel 23:36; 15 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “built”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 62 — the same as the Torah word בין, “between”. That number points to Torah page 62 of 354 — in the portion Vayishlach. What that portion is about: Wrestling with the angel and the name Israel; the meeting with Esau; Dinah in Shechem; the birth of Benjamin and Rachel's death. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 19:1. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Bani” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: בני. 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 בני gives 62.
62
The number 62 is the Torah word בין — «between» (Genesis 1:4).
For their substance was too great for them to dwell together; and the land of their sojournings could not bear them because of their cattle.
This is from the portion Vayishlach. What it is about: Wrestling with the angel and the name Israel; the meeting with Esau; Dinah in Shechem; the birth of Benjamin and Rachel's death.
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) — 62. A Torah word with the same number is בין — “between” (Genesis 1:4).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 8. A Torah word with the same number is אהב — “to love” (Genesis 22:2).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 26. A Torah word with the same number is והיה — “and it became” (Genesis 2:10).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 253. A Torah word with the same number is אבירם — “Abiram, son of Eliab” (Numbers 16:1).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 2604.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 116. A Torah word with the same number is נוס — “to flee” (Genesis 14:10).
The letters that come out are שטמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 349. A Torah word with the same number is שטם — “to bear a grudge” (Genesis 27:41).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 538. A Torah word with the same number is נחלתן — “their inheritance” (Numbers 36:3).
The number 62 appears in the classical books 11 times across 10 works. The earliest mention is ספר יראים (~1190).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 62. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.
Hebrew is written from right to left. בני has 3 letters: ב Bet, נ Nun, י Yod. The first letter is Bet, the last is Yod.
For an engraving, a sign or a tattoo, show the spelling to someone who reads Hebrew: transliterating a name is a choice, not the only option.
The name בני appears in the Torah as a word 623 times. The first time is Genesis 6:2. Another 128 times it stands with prefixes — “and”, “in”, “the”.
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 בני these are ב and י. The Pentateuch has 16 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 19:1:
בחדש השלישי לצאת בני ישראל מארץ מצרים ביום הזה באו מדבר סיני
This is from the portion Yitro. What it is about: Jethro's counsel on judges; standing at Sinai; the Ten Utterances; “you shall not make yourself an idol”.
The name בני has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 62 is not among them. Half of all names are like this — neither good nor bad, just a fact of counting.
Add a date of birth and the verse of meeting from that week's portion is added to the reading.
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.
