The name Sharar in Hebrew letters is שרר. 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.
שרר
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is שרר. A Tanakh name: an Israelite (first in 2 Samuel 23:33; 1 mention in the Tanakh). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 700 — the same as the Torah word כפרת, “mercy seat, cover”. That number points to Torah page 346 of 354 — in the portion Nitzavim. What that portion is about: “You are standing”: the covenant with all, and with those not here; “the word is very near to you”; choose life. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 23:12. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Sharar” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: שרר. 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 שרר gives 700.
700
The number 700 is the Torah word כפרת — «mercy seat, cover» (Exodus 25:17).
The secret things belong unto HaShem our G-d; but the things that are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
This is from the portion Nitzavim. What it is about: “You are standing”: the covenant with all, and with those not here; “the word is very near to you”; choose life.
The same number, 700, is given by these Tanakh names:
Seth שת
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) — 700. A Torah word with the same number is כפרת — “mercy seat, cover” (Exodus 25:17).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 7. A Torah word with the same number is או — “or” (Genesis 24:49).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 61. A Torah word with the same number is אני — “I” (Genesis 6:17).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 2685.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 170000.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1500.
The letters that come out are בגג — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 8. A Torah word with the same number is אהב — “to love” (Genesis 22:2).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1380.
The number 700 appears in the classical books 11 times across 5 works. The earliest mention is ספר חסידים (~1200).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 700. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.
Hebrew is written from right to left. שרר has 3 letters: ש Shin, ר Resh, ר Resh. The first letter is Shin, the last is Resh.
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 שרר 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 שרר these are ש and ר. The Pentateuch has 2 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 23:12:
ששת ימים תעשה מעשיך וביום השביעי תשבת למען ינוח שורך וחמרך וינפש בן אמתך והגר
This is from the portion Mishpatim. What it is about: Laws of the servant, damages, theft and pledges; “an eye for an eye” as compensation; the sabbatical year; “we will do and we will hear”.
The name שרר has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 700 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.
