דניס
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is דניס. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 124 — the same as the Torah word עדן, “Eden, the region of Adam's home”. That number points to Torah page 124 of 354 — in the portion Yitro. What that portion is about: Jethro's counsel on judges; standing at Sinai; the Ten Utterances; “you shall not make yourself an idol”. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. There are no predictions or judgments here — only the text of the Torah and arithmetic you can check.
Adding up the letters of the name דניס gives 124.
124
The number 124 is the Torah word עדן — «Eden, the region of Adam's home» (Genesis 2:8).
The number 124, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 124 in the book of Shmot (Exodus). These are its opening words:
אלה הדברים אשר תדבר אל בני ישראל ויבא …
The verse this place falls on is Shmot (Exodus) 19:6:
וְאַתֶּם תִּהְיוּ־לִי מַמְלֶכֶת כֹּהֲנִים וְגוֹי קָדוֹשׁ אֵלֶּה הַדְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר תְּדַבֵּר אֶל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל
and ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.'
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 same number, 124, is given by these biblical names:
יוחנן · עדן · אלעוזי · ידלף
Nine 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) — 124. A Torah word with the same number is עדן — “Eden, the region of Adam's home” (Genesis 2:8).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 16. A Torah word with the same number is אחז — “to seize” (Genesis 22:13).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 43. A Torah word with the same number is גם — “assemblage” (Genesis 3:6).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 515. A Torah word with the same number is ירשה — “something occupied” (Deuteronomy 2:5).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 6216.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 246. A Torah word with the same number is מדבר — “a pasture” (Genesis 14:6).
The word that comes out is קטמח. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 157. A Torah word with the same number is זקן — “old” (Genesis 18:11).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 680. A Torah word with the same number is פתר — “to open up, i.e.” (Genesis 40:8).
The number 124 appears in the classical books 6 times across 6 works. The earliest mention is כל בו (~1300).

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.
