The name Jehizkiah in Hebrew letters is יחזקיהו. 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.
יחזקיהו
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is יחזקיהו. A Tanakh name: the name of five Israelites (first in 2 Chronicles 28:12; 1 mention in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “strengthened by God”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 146 — the same as the Torah word קום, “to arise”. That number points to Torah page 146 of 354 — in the portion Ki Tisa. What that portion is about: The half-shekel for the census; the golden calf and the broken tablets; the thirteen attributes of mercy; the second tablets. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 9:27. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Jehizkiah” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: יחזקיהו. 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.

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) — 146. A Torah word with the same number is קום — “to arise” (Genesis 4:8).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 29. A Torah word with the same number is דכה — “crushed” (Deuteronomy 23:2).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 65. A Torah word with the same number is אדני — “my Lord” (Genesis 15:2).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 805. A Torah word with the same number is שרשה — “chain” (Exodus 28:22).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 10374.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 599.
The letters that come out are מסעדמצפ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 384. A Torah word with the same number is משלוח — “undertaking of the hand” (Deuteronomy 12:7).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 729.

The name יחזקיהו 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 יחזקיהו these are י and ו. The Pentateuch has 7 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 9:27:
יפת אלהים ליפת וישכן באהלי שם ויהי כנען עבד למו
This is from the portion Noach. What it is about: The flood and the ark; the rainbow as a sign of the covenant; the tower of Babel; ten generations from Noah to Abraham.
Any name written in Hebrew letters is a number: יחזקיהו = 146. 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.
