טיבו
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is טיבו. Thibault is a French name for boys that comes from Old Germanic: “theud” means “people” and “bald” means “bold”. Today this name is found mostly in France. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 27 — the same as the Torah word בכה, “to weep”. That number points to Torah page 27 of 354 — in the portion Vayera. What that portion is about: Three visitors at Abraham's tent; the plea for Sodom; the birth of Isaac; the binding of Isaac on Mount Moriah. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Nahum 1:7. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Tibo” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: טיבו. 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 טיבו gives 27.

But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.
This is from the portion Vayera. What it is about: Three visitors at Abraham's tent; the plea for Sodom; the birth of Isaac; the binding of Isaac on Mount Moriah.
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.
with finals and ordinal — 27. A Torah word with the same number is בכה — “to weep” (Genesis 21:16).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 18. A Torah word with the same number is חי — “living” (Genesis 1:20).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 124. A Torah word with the same number is עדן — “Eden” (Genesis 2:8).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 221. A Torah word with the same number is ארך — “length” (Genesis 6:15).
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 76. A Torah word with the same number is עבד — “servant” (Genesis 9:25).
The letters that come out are נמשפ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 470. A Torah word with the same number is עת — “time” (Genesis 8:11).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 863.
The number 27 appears in the classical books 11 times across 9 works. The earliest mention is פרי עץ חיים שער העמידה (~1573).

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 טיבו 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 ט and ends with ו. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 13 such verses. The first of them is Nahum 1:7:
«But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.»
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.
