In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is פלורנטיי. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 395 — the same as the Torah word מנשה, “Manasseh, son of Joseph”. That number points to Torah page 41 of 354 — in the portion Toldot. What that portion is about: The birth of Esau and Jacob; the birthright sold for lentil stew; Isaac's wells; Jacob receives the blessing. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Numbers 25:11. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Florentiy” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: פלורנטיי. 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 פלורנטיי gives 395.
395
The number 395 is the Torah word מנשה — «Manasseh, son of Joseph» (Genesis 41:51).
And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.
This is from the portion Toldot. What it is about: The birth of Esau and Jacob; the birthright sold for lentil stew; Isaac's wells; Jacob receives the blessing.
The same number, 395, is given by these Tanakh names:
Manasseh מנשה
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) — 395. A Torah word with the same number is מנשה — “Manasseh, son of Joseph” (Genesis 41:51).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 35. A Torah word with the same number is גבל — “to set bounds” (Exodus 19:12).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 98. A Torah word with the same number is סלח — “to forgive” (Exodus 34:9).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1676.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 50117.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 2143.
The letters that come out are וכפגטנממ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 248. A Torah word with the same number is אברהם — “Abraham” (Genesis 17:5).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1242.
The number 395 appears in the classical books 10 times across 9 works. The earliest mention is דרושי שער הכוונות (~1573).

The name פלורנטיי 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 פלורנטיי these are פ and י. The Pentateuch has exactly one such verse — Numbers 25:11:
פינחס בן אלעזר בן אהרן הכהן השיב את חמתי מעל בני ישראל בקנאו את קנאתי בתוכם ולא כליתי את בני ישראל בקנאתי
This is from the portion Pinchas. What it is about: The covenant of peace with Phinehas; the second census; the daughters of Zelophehad and inheritance; Joshua the successor; the festival offerings.
The name פלורנטיי has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 395 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.
