The name Sibbecai in Hebrew letters is סבכי. 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.
סבכי
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is סבכי. A Tanakh name: an Israelite (first in 2 Samuel 21:18; 4 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “copse-like”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 92 — the same as the Torah word מאומה, “anything”. That number points to Torah page 92 of 354 — in the portion Shemot. What that portion is about: Slavery in Egypt; Moses in the basket on the Nile; the burning bush and the Name; the first audience with Pharaoh. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Psalms 6:9. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Sibbecai” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: סבכי. 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) — 92. A Torah word with the same number is מאומה — “anything” (Genesis 22:12).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 11. A Torah word with the same number is חג — “festival” (Exodus 10:9).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 38. A Torah word with the same number is גלה — “to uncover” (Genesis 9:21).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 388. A Torah word with the same number is שלחן — “table” (Exodus 25:23).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 4104.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 296. A Torah word with the same number is צור — “rock” (Exodus 17:6).
The letters that come out are חשלמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 378. A Torah word with the same number is שבוע — “week” (Genesis 29:27).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 652. A Torah word with the same number is מרבית — “increase, profit” (Leviticus 25:37).

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 סבכי 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 ס and ends with י. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 10 such verses. The first of them is Psalms 6:9:
«come, let us deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there befalleth us any war, they also join themselves unto our enemies, and fight against us, and get them up out of the land.'»
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.
