The name Lyubomira in Hebrew letters is ליובומירה. 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.
ליובומירה
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is ליובומירה. The name Lyubomira comes from the Slavic languages: its root, the word lyub + mir, means “love and peace”. It is a girl's name that is found mostly in Bulgaria. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 309 — the same as the Torah word שדה, “field”. That number points to Torah page 309 of 354 — in the portion Eikev. What that portion is about: “Because you will heed”: the land of seven fruits; the blessing after meals; manna as a test; the second paragraph of the Shema. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 49:18. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Lyubomira” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: ליובומירה. 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 ליובומירה gives 309.
309
The number 309 is the Torah word שדה — «field» (Genesis 2:5).
And it shall be, if thou shalt forget HaShem thy G-d, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I forewarn you this day that ye shall surely perish.
This is from the portion Eikev. What it is about: “Because you will heed”: the land of seven fruits; the blessing after meals; manna as a test; the second paragraph of the Shema.
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) — 309. A Torah word with the same number is שדה — “field” (Genesis 2:5).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 30. A Torah word with the same number is כי — “for, because, that” (Genesis 1:4).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 84. A Torah word with the same number is ידע — “to know” (Genesis 3:5).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1215.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 42801.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1029.
The letters that come out are כמפשפימגצ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 663.
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1146. A Torah word with the same number is תשומת — “deposit, pledge” (Leviticus 5:21).
The number 309 appears in the classical books 2 times across 2 works. The earliest mention is טור ברקת (~1650).

The name ליובומירה 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 ליובומירה these are ל and ה. The Pentateuch has 27 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 49:18:
לישועתך קויתי ה׳
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.

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.
