Naomi — the number of the name, the Torah page and the verse
The name Naomi in Hebrew letters is נעמי. 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.
נעמי
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is נעמי. “My pleasantness.” Ruth’s mother-in-law; after losing husband and sons she returned from Moab to Bethlehem (Ruth). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 170 — the same as the Torah word ענן, “a cloud”. That number points to Torah page 170 of 354 — in the portion Vayikra. What that portion is about: “And He called”: the burnt, grain, peace, sin and guilt offerings — the order of the sacrifices. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. There are no predictions or judgments here — only the text of the Torah and arithmetic you can check.
Adding up the letters of the name נעמי gives 170.
170
The number 170 is the Torah word ענן — «a cloud» (Genesis 9:13).
The number 170, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 170 in the book of Vayikra (Leviticus). These are its opening words:
שעיר עזים זכר תמים וסמך ידו על ראש …
The verse this place falls on is Vayikra (Leviticus) 4:23:
אוֹ־הוֹדַע אֵלָיו חַטָּאתוֹ אֲשֶׁר חָטָא בָּהּ וְהֵבִיא אֶת־קָרְבָּנוֹ שְׂעִיר עִזִּים זָכָר תָּמִים
if his sin, wherein he hath sinned, be known to him, he shall bring for his offering a goat, a male without blemish.
This is from the portion Vayikra. What it is about: “And He called”: the burnt, grain, peace, sin and guilt offerings — the order of the sacrifices.
The same number, 170, is given by these biblical names:
נעמי · יפיע · ניסן · ססמי
Nine 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) — 170. A Torah word with the same number is ענן — “a cloud” (Genesis 9:13).
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) — 53. A Torah word with the same number is אבן — “a stone” (Genesis 2:12).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 720.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 9100.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 500. A Torah word with the same number is נתן — “to give, used with greatest latitude of…” (Genesis 1:17).
The word that comes out is טזימ. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 66. A Torah word with the same number is כמו — “a form of the prefix 'k-', but used separately…” (Genesis 19:15).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 336. A Torah word with the same number is שול — “a skirt” (Exodus 28:33).
The number 170 appears in the classical books 14 times across 9 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The verse of your name
There is no verse in the Pentateuch that begins with נ and ends with י. That happens with some letter pairs and means nothing in itself.

How it is counted
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.
