The name Kurochkina in Hebrew letters is קורוצ'קינה. 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.
קורוצ'קינה
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is קורוצ'קינה. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 567 — the same as the Torah word זקנתי, “I have grown old”. That number points to Torah page 213 of 354 — in the portion Bechukotai. What that portion is about: “If you walk in My statutes”: blessings for faithfulness and admonitions; vows and valuations; the tithe. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 13:17. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Kurochkina” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: קורוצ'קינה. 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 קורוצ'קינה gives 567.
567
The number 567 is the Torah word זקנתי — «I have grown old» (Genesis 18:13).
And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; and I will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
This is from the portion Bechukotai. What it is about: “If you walk in My statutes”: blessings for faithfulness and admonitions; vows and valuations; the tithe.
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) — 567. A Torah word with the same number is זקנתי — “I have grown old” (Genesis 18:13).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 36. A Torah word with the same number is אלה — “these” (Genesis 2:4).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 117. A Torah word with the same number is אלוף — “chief” (Genesis 36:15).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 2787.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 70797.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 3369.
The letters that come out are דפגפהדמטצ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 315. A Torah word with the same number is מערה — “cave” (Genesis 19:30).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1142.
The number 567 appears in the classical books 5 times across 4 works. The earliest mention is עץ חיים (~1573).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 567. 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 קורוצ'קינה 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 קורוצ'קינה these are ק and ה. The Pentateuch has 14 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 13:17:
קום התהלך בארץ לארכה ולרחבה כי לך אתננה
This is from the portion Lech Lecha. What it is about: “Go forth”: Abraham leaves Haran; the promise of land and offspring; the covenant between the pieces; circumcision.
The name קורוצ'קינה has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 567 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.
