The name Evdokiya in Hebrew letters is יבדוקיה. 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.
יבדוקיה
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is יבדוקיה. The name Evdokiya comes from Greek eudokia, “good will”. Yevdokiya Lopukhina was the first wife of the Russian tsar Peter the Great; they married in 1689. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 137 — the same as the Torah word מצבה, “pillar”. That number points to Torah page 137 of 354 — in the portion Terumah. What that portion is about: The offering for the Sanctuary; the Ark, the table and the lampstand; the Tabernacle and its curtains; the altar. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 33:14. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Evdokiya” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: יבדוקיה. 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 יבדוקיה gives 137.
137
The number 137 is the Torah word מצבה — «pillar» (Genesis 28:18).
And thou shalt make a screen for the door of the Tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the weaver in colours.
This is from the portion Terumah. What it is about: The offering for the Sanctuary; the Ark, the table and the lampstand; the Tabernacle and its curtains; the altar.
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) — 137. A Torah word with the same number is מצבה — “pillar” (Genesis 28:18).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 20. A Torah word with the same number is היה — “to be, become” (Genesis 1:2).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 56. A Torah word with the same number is יום — “day” (Genesis 1:5).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 754. A Torah word with the same number is ומשחת — “and you shall anoint” (Exodus 28:41).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 10281.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 451. A Torah word with the same number is ישמעאל — “Ishmael, son of Abraham” (Genesis 16:11).
The letters that come out are משקפדמצ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 654. A Torah word with the same number is תוגרמה — “Togarmah, son of Gomer” (Genesis 10:3).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1090.
The number 137 appears in the classical books 8 times across 6 works. The earliest mention is עץ חיים (~1573).

The name יבדוקיה 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 יבדוקיה these are י and ה. The Pentateuch has 10 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 33:14:
יעבר נא אדני לפני עבדו ואני אתנהלה לאטי לרגל המלאכה אשר לפני ולרגל הילדים עד אשר אבא אל אדני שעירה
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.
Any name written in Hebrew letters is a number: יבדוקיה = 137. And every date has a number of its own. There is a day in the year when the two coincide.
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.
