The name Tair in Hebrew letters is תאיר. 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.
תאיר
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is תאיר. This name comes from Hebrew. Its source is the word or name or, which means “light”; today it is mostly found in Israel. This is its original Hebrew spelling. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 611 — the same as the Torah word תורה, “law, instruction”. That number points to Torah page 257 of 354 — in the portion Korach. What that portion is about: Korah's rebellion; Aaron's staff blossoms; the duties of the priests and Levites; the priestly gifts. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 5:9. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Tair” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: תאיר. 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 תאיר gives 611.
611
The number 611 is the Torah word תורה — «law, instruction» (Genesis 26:5).
Out of all that is given you ye shall set apart all of that which is due unto HaShem, of all the best thereof, even the hallowed part thereof out of it.
This is from the portion Korach. What it is about: Korah's rebellion; Aaron's staff blossoms; the duties of the priests and Levites; the priestly gifts.
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) — 611. A Torah word with the same number is תורה — “law, instruction” (Genesis 26:5).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 8. A Torah word with the same number is אהב — “to love” (Genesis 22:2).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 53. A Torah word with the same number is אבן — “stone” (Genesis 2:12).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 2346.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 200101.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1823.
The letters that come out are אתמג — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 444. A Torah word with the same number is מקדש — “sanctuary” (Exodus 15:17).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1047.
The number 611 appears in the classical books 50 times across 28 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 611. 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. תאיר has 4 letters: ת Tav, א Alef, י Yod, ר Resh. The first letter is Tav, 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 תאיר 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 תאיר these are ת and ר. The Pentateuch has exactly one such verse — Exodus 5:9:
תכבד העבדה על האנשים ויעשו בה ואל ישעו בדברי שקר
This is from the portion Shemot. What it is about: Slavery in Egypt; Moses in the basket on the Nile; the burning bush and the Name; the first audience with Pharaoh.
The name תאיר has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 611 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.
