ליוק
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is ליוק. The name Luc comes from Greek: its root, the word Loukas, means “man from Lucania”. It is a boy's name that is found mostly in France. In Hebrew it is written by sound. 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 Psalms 2:1. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Lyuk” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: ליוק. 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) — 11. A Torah word with the same number is חג — “festival” (Exodus 10:9).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 47. A Torah word with the same number is אולי — “perhaps” (Genesis 16:2).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 776. A Torah word with the same number is תעשו — “you shall do” (Genesis 19:8).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 11036.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 262. A Torah word with the same number is אהרון — “Aaron, brother of Moses” (Exodus 4:14).
The letters that come out are כמפד — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 144. A Torah word with the same number is קדם — “east, ancient time” (Genesis 2:8).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 292. A Torah word with the same number is רביעי — “fourth” (Genesis 1:19).

The name ליוק 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
The Pentateuch has no verse that begins with ל and ends with ק. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 2 such verses. The first of them is Psalms 2:1:
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.
