The name Gehazi in Hebrew letters is גיחזי. 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.
גיחזי
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is גיחזי. A Tanakh name: the servant of Elisha (first in 2 Kings 4:12; 12 mentions in the Tanakh). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 38 — the same as the Torah word גלה, “to uncover”. That number points to Torah page 38 of 354 — in the portion Chayei Sarah. What that portion is about: Sarah's death and the purchase of the cave of Machpelah; the servant seeks a wife for Isaac; Rebecca at the well; Abraham's death. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 23:4. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Gehazi” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: גיחזי. 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 גיחזי gives 38.
38
The number 38 is the Torah word גלה — «to uncover» (Genesis 9:21).
And I bowed my head, and prostrated myself before HaShem, and blessed HaShem, the G-d of my master Abraham, who had led me in the right way to take my master's brother's daughter for his son.
This is from the portion Chayei Sarah. What it is about: Sarah's death and the purchase of the cave of Machpelah; the servant seeks a wife for Isaac; Rebecca at the well; Abraham'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.
with finals and ordinal — 38. A Torah word with the same number is גלה — “to uncover” (Genesis 9:21).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 20. A Torah word with the same number is היה — “to be, become” (Genesis 1:2).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 180. A Torah word with the same number is פנים — “face” (Genesis 1:2).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 322. A Torah word with the same number is כבש — “male lamb” (Exodus 12:5).
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 103. A Torah word with the same number is מנחה — “offering, gift” (Genesis 4:3).
The letters that come out are רמסעמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 410. A Torah word with the same number is שמע — “to hear” (Genesis 3:8).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 608. A Torah word with the same number is תרח — “Terah, father of Abraham” (Genesis 11:24).
The number 38 appears in the classical books 1 time across 1 work. The earliest mention is ליקוטי שושנים (שמשון מאוסטרופולי) (~1640).

The name גיחזי 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 גיחזי these are ג and י. The Pentateuch has 2 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 23:4:
This is from the portion Chayei Sarah. What it is about: Sarah's death and the purchase of the cave of Machpelah; the servant seeks a wife for Isaac; Rebecca at the well; Abraham's death.
The name גיחזי has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 38 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.
