נדז'ייה
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is נדז'ייה. Nadzeya is a name of Slavic origin, from “nadzeya”, which means “hope”. It is the Belarusian form of the name Nadezhda and is common in Belarus. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 86 — the same as the Torah word אלהים, “God”. That number points to Torah page 86 of 354 — in the portion Vayigash. What that portion is about: Judah pleads for Benjamin; Joseph reveals himself to his brothers; Jacob goes down to Egypt; the family settles in Goshen. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Leviticus 22:8. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Nadzhiya” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: נדז'ייה. 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) — 86. A Torah word with the same number is אלהים — “God” (Genesis 1:1).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 23.
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 50. A Torah word with the same number is כל — “all, every” (Genesis 1:21).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 358. A Torah word with the same number is חשן — “breastpiece” (Exodus 25:7).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 2790.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 403. A Torah word with the same number is גרר — “Gerar, Philistine city” (Genesis 10:19).
The letters that come out are טקעממצ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 349. A Torah word with the same number is שטם — “to bear a grudge” (Genesis 27:41).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 653. A Torah word with the same number is ארנבת — “hare” (Leviticus 11:6).
The number 86 appears in the classical books 155 times across 57 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The name נדז'ייה 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 נדז'ייה these are נ and ה. The Pentateuch has exactly one such verse — Leviticus 22:8:
נבלה וטרפה לא יאכל לטמאה בה אני ה׳
This is from the portion Emor. What it is about: Laws of the priests; animals without blemish; the calendar of festivals — from the Sabbath to Sukkot; the lamp and the showbread.
Any name written in Hebrew letters is a number: נדז'ייה = 86. And every date has a number of its own. There is a day in the year when the two coincide.
