The name Jezer in Hebrew letters is יצר. 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.
יצר
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is יצר. A Tanakh name: the name of an Israelite (first in Genesis 46:24; 3 mentions in the Tanakh). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 300 — the same as the Torah word כפר, “to cover; atone”. That number points to Torah page 300 of 354 — in the portion Vaetchanan. What that portion is about: Moses pleads to enter the land; the Ten Utterances repeated; “Hear, O Israel”; the warning against forgetting. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 49:17. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Jezer” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: יצר. 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 יצר gives 300.
300
The number 300 is the Torah word כפר — «to cover; atone» (Genesis 6:14).
and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which HaShem thy G-d hath allotted unto all the peoples under the whole heaven.
This is from the portion Vaetchanan. What it is about: Moses pleads to enter the land; the Ten Utterances repeated; “Hear, O Israel”; the warning against forgetting.
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) — 300. A Torah word with the same number is כפר — “to cover; atone” (Genesis 6:14).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 12. A Torah word with the same number is הוא — “he, it” (Genesis 2:11).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 48. A Torah word with the same number is יובל — “ram's horn, jubilee” (Exodus 19:13).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1345.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 48200.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 410. A Torah word with the same number is שמע — “to hear” (Genesis 3:8).
The letters that come out are מהג — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 48. A Torah word with the same number is יובל — “ram's horn, jubilee” (Exodus 19:13).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 634. A Torah word with the same number is לדרת — “for generations” (Genesis 9:12).
The number 300 appears in the classical books 50 times across 27 works. The earliest mention is פירוש קדמון על ספר חסידים (~1200).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 300. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.

For an engraving, a sign or a tattoo, show the spelling to someone who reads Hebrew: transliterating a name is a choice, not the only option.
The name יצר appears in the Torah as a word 3 times. The first time is Genesis 2:8. Another 5 times it stands with prefixes — “and”, “in”, “the”.
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 יצר these are י and ר. The Pentateuch has 4 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 49:17:
יהי דן נחש עלי דרך שפיפן עלי ארח הנשך עקבי סוס ויפל רכבו אחור
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.
The name יצר has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 300 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.
