The name Hazihammenuhoth in Hebrew letters is חצי. 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.
חצי
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is חצי. A Tanakh name: an Israelite (first in 1 Chronicles 2:52; 2 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “midst of the resting-places”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 108 — the same as the Torah word חק, “statute, allotted portion”. That number points to Torah page 108 of 354 — in the portion Bo. What that portion is about: Locusts, darkness and the death of the firstborn; the Passover lamb; the exodus from Egypt; the commandment of tefillin. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is 1 Samuel 21:16. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Hazihammenuhoth” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: חצי. 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 חצי gives 108.
108
The number 108 is the Torah word חק — «statute, allotted portion» (Genesis 47:22).
And Moses said: 'We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds we will go; for we must hold a feast unto HaShem.'
This is from the portion Bo. What it is about: Locusts, darkness and the death of the firstborn; the Passover lamb; the exodus from Egypt; the commandment of tefillin.
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) — 108. A Torah word with the same number is חק — “statute, allotted portion” (Genesis 47:22).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 18. A Torah word with the same number is חי — “living” (Genesis 1:20).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 36. A Torah word with the same number is אלה — “these” (Genesis 2:4).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 586. A Torah word with the same number is שופר — “ram's horn, shofar” (Exodus 19:16).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 8264.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 214. A Torah word with the same number is ירד — “to go down” (Genesis 11:5).
The letters that come out are סהמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 105. A Torah word with the same number is עלה — “to go up” (Genesis 2:6).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 542. A Torah word with the same number is אשריאל — “Asriel, descendant of Manasseh” (Numbers 26:31).
The number 108 appears in the classical books 15 times across 10 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The verse of your name
The Pentateuch has no verse that begins with ח and ends with י. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 33 such verses. The first of them is 1 Samuel 21:16:
חסר משגעים אני כי הבאתם את זה להשתגע עלי הזה יבוא אל ביתי
The name חצי has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 108 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.
