The name Gregorio in Hebrew letters is גרגוריו. 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.
גרגוריו
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is גרגוריו. Gregorio is the Italian and Spanish form of the Greek name Gregorios, from “gregoros”, meaning “watchful”. Pope Gregory XIII brought in the Gregorian calendar in 1582. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 428 — the same as the Torah word מחשף, “laying bare”. That number points to Torah page 74 of 354 — in the portion Miketz. What that portion is about: Pharaoh's dreams of seven cows and seven ears; Joseph rules Egypt; the brothers come for grain; the cup in Benjamin's sack. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 49:9. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Gregorio” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: גרגוריו. 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 גרגוריו gives 428.
428
The number 428 is the Torah word מחשף — «laying bare» (Genesis 30:37).
And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians: 'Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.'
This is from the portion Miketz. What it is about: Pharaoh's dreams of seven cows and seven ears; Joseph rules Egypt; the brothers come for grain; the cup in Benjamin's sack.
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) — 428. A Torah word with the same number is מחשף — “laying bare” (Genesis 30:37).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 23.
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 68. A Torah word with the same number is חלל — “to begin” (Genesis 4:26).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1699.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 80190.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1886.
The letters that come out are רגרפגמפ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 606. A Torah word with the same number is תור — “to scout out” (Numbers 10:33).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1230.
The number 428 appears in the classical books 9 times across 9 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 — 428. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.

The name גרגוריו 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 גרגוריו these are ג and ו. The Pentateuch has 3 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 49:9:
גור אריה יהודה מטרף בני עלית כרע רבץ כאריה וכלביא מי יקימנו
This is from the portion Vayechi. What it is about: Jacob blesses Ephraim and Manasseh and all his sons; Jacob's death and burial in Hebron; Joseph's death.
Any name written in Hebrew letters is a number: גרגוריו = 428. And every date has a number of its own. There is a day in the year when the two coincide.
«And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians: 'Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.'»
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.
