The name Nebushazban in Hebrew letters is נבושזב. 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.
נבושזב
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is נבושזב. A Tanakh name: Nebuchadnezzar's chief eunuch (first in Jeremiah 39:13; 1 mention in the Tanakh). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 367 — the same as the Torah word אישון, “pupil of the eye”. That number points to Torah page 13 of 354 — in the portion Noach. What that portion 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 verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Psalms 119:112. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Nebushazban” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: נבושזב. 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 נבושזב gives 367.
367
The number 367 is the Torah word אישון — «pupil of the eye» (Deuteronomy 32:10).
And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, and upon all wherewith the ground teemeth, and upon all the fishes of the sea: into your hand are they delivered.
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.
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) — 367. A Torah word with the same number is אישון — “pupil of the eye” (Deuteronomy 32:10).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 25. A Torah word with the same number is כה — “thus, so” (Genesis 15:5).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 52. A Torah word with the same number is בן — “son” (Genesis 3:16).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1345.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 92593.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1250.
The letters that come out are טשפבעש — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 761. A Torah word with the same number is נשאתי — “I have granted” (Genesis 19:21).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1369.
The number 367 appears in the classical books 2 times across 2 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The name נבושזב 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 ב. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 3 such verses. The first of them is Psalms 119:112:
Any name written in Hebrew letters is a number: נבושזב = 367. And every date has a number of its own. There is a day in the year when the two coincide.
«And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, and upon all wherewith the ground teemeth, and upon all the fishes of the sea: into your hand are they delivered.»
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.
