The name Naboth in Hebrew letters is נבות. 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.
נבות
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is נבות. A Tanakh name: an Israelite (first in 1 Kings 21:1; 22 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “fruits”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 458 — the same as the Torah word חתן, “to intermarry; father-in-law”. That number points to Torah page 104 of 354 — in the portion Vaera. What that portion is about: “And I appeared”: the promise of redemption in four expressions; the first seven plagues, from blood to hail. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Jeremiah 15:16. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Naboth” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: נבות. 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 נבות gives 458.
458
The number 458 is the Torah word חתן — «to intermarry; father-in-law» (Genesis 34:9).
And the magicians did so with their secret arts to bring forth gnats, but they could not; and there were gnats upon man, and upon beast.
This is from the portion Vaera. What it is about: “And I appeared”: the promise of redemption in four expressions; the first seven plagues, from blood to hail.
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) — 458. A Torah word with the same number is חתן — “to intermarry; father-in-law” (Genesis 34:9).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 17. A Torah word with the same number is טוב — “good” (Genesis 1:4).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 44. A Torah word with the same number is ילד — “to bear, give birth” (Genesis 3:16).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1714.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 162540.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 618. A Torah word with the same number is בריתו — “his covenant” (Exodus 2:24).
The letters that come out are טשפא — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 390. A Torah word with the same number is שמן — “oil” (Genesis 28:18).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 936.
The number 458 appears in the classical books 17 times across 5 works. The earliest mention is ספר קרניים (~1400).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 458. 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 נבות 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 נ and ends with ת. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 7 such verses. The first of them is Jeremiah 15:16:
נמצאו דבריך ואכלם ויהי דבריך לי לששון ולשמחת לבבי כי נקרא שמך עלי ה׳ אלהי צבאות
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.
