The name Eliseo in Hebrew letters is אלישע. 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.
אלישע
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is אלישע. A Tanakh name: the famous prophet (first in 1 Kings 19:16; 58 mentions in the Tanakh). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 411 — the same as the Torah word שלמיאל, “Shelumiel, chief of Simeon”. That number points to Torah page 57 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 21:10. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Eliseo” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: אלישע. 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 אלישע gives 411.
411
The number 411 is the Torah word שלמיאל — «Shelumiel, chief of Simeon» (Numbers 1:6).
And Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he divided the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids.
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) — 411. A Torah word with the same number is שלמיאל — “Shelumiel, chief of Simeon” (Numbers 1:6).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 15. A Torah word with the same number is זוב — “to flow” (Exodus 3:8).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 60. A Torah word with the same number is ילך — “he will go” (Genesis 3:14).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1581.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 95901.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 825. A Torah word with the same number is נעשתה — “it was done” (Numbers 15:24).
The letters that come out are תכמבז — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 469. A Torah word with the same number is אבתינו — “our fathers” (Genesis 46:34).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 695. A Torah word with the same number is תרצה — “Tirzah, daughter of Zelophehad” (Numbers 26:33).
The number 411 appears in the classical books 11 times across 8 works. The earliest mention is ספר קרניים (~1400).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 411. 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. אלישע has 5 letters: א Alef, ל Lamed, י Yod, ש Shin, ע Ayin. The first letter is Alef, the last is Ayin.
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 אלישע 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 אלישע these are א and ע. The Pentateuch has 6 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 21:10:
אם אחרת יקח לו שארה כסותה וענתה לא יגרע
This is from the portion Mishpatim. What it is about: Laws of the servant, damages, theft and pledges; “an eye for an eye” as compensation; the sabbatical year; “we will do and we will hear”.
The name אלישע has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 411 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.
