רבשן
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is רבשן. From Persian rowšan, “bright”. Source: Wiktionary. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 552 — the same as the Torah word מצותיו, “his commandments”. That number points to Torah page 198 of 354 — in the portion Achrei Mot. What that portion is about: The service of Yom Kippur: two goats, the lot, the Holy of Holies; the prohibition of blood; the laws of forbidden unions. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is 2 Kings 10:29. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Ravshan” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: רבשן. 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 רבשן gives 552.
552
The number 552 is the Torah word מצותיו — «his commandments» (Deuteronomy 4:40).
Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness: they are near kinswomen; it is lewdness.
This is from the portion Achrei Mot. What it is about: The service of Yom Kippur: two goats, the lot, the Holy of Holies; the prohibition of blood; the laws of forbidden unions.
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) — 1202.
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 12. A Torah word with the same number is הוא — “he, it” (Genesis 2:11).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 57. A Torah word with the same number is מזבח — “altar” (Genesis 8:20).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 2088.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 132504.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1456.
The letters that come out are גשבט — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 314. A Torah word with the same number is שטה — “acacia” (Exodus 25:5).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1388.
The number 552 appears in the classical books 7 times across 5 works. The earliest mention is מדרש לפירושים (~1450?).

The name רבשן 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 ר and ends with נ. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 8 such verses. The first of them is 2 Kings 10:29:
רק חטאי ירבעם בן נבט אשר החטיא את ישראל לא סר יהוא מאחריהם עגלי הזהב אשר בית אל ואשר בדן
The name רבשן has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 552 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.
