The name Meshillemith in Hebrew letters is משלמית. 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.
משלמית
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is משלמית. A Tanakh name: an Israelite (first in 1 Chronicles 9:12; 1 mention in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “reconciliation”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 820 — the same as the Torah word פלשתי, “Philistine”. That number points to Torah page 112 of 354 — in the portion Bo. What that portion is about: Locusts, darkness and the death of the firstborn; the Passover lamb; the exodus from Egypt; the commandment of tefillin. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Genesis 6:20. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Meshillemith” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: משלמית. 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 משלמית gives 820.
820
The number 820 is the Torah word פלשתי — «Philistine» (Genesis 10:14).
that ye shall say: It is the sacrifice of HaShem'S passover, for that He passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when He smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses.' And the people bowed the head and worshipped.
This is from the portion Bo. What it is about: Locusts, darkness and the death of the firstborn; the Passover lamb; the exodus from Egypt; the commandment of tefillin.
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) — 820. A Torah word with the same number is פלשתי — “Philistine” (Genesis 10:14).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 19. A Torah word with the same number is גוי — “nation” (Genesis 10:5).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 91. A Torah word with the same number is מלאך — “messenger, angel” (Genesis 16:7).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 3040.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 254200.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 2400.
The letters that come out are יבכימא — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 83. A Torah word with the same number is חלילה — “far be it” (Genesis 18:25).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1020.

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 820. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.
Hebrew is written from right to left. משלמית has 6 letters: מ Mem, ש Shin, ל Lamed, מ Mem, י Yod, ת Tav. The first letter is Mem, the last is Tav.
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 משלמית 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 משלמית these are מ and ת. The Pentateuch has 6 such verses. The first of them is Genesis 6:20:
מהעוף למינהו ומן הבהמה למינה מכל רמש האדמה למינהו שנים מכל יבאו אליך להחיות
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.
The name משלמית has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 820 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.
