טוסן
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is טוסן. Toussaint is a French name for boys that comes from French: the word “Toussaint” means “All Saints' Day”. Today this name is found mostly in France. In Hebrew it is written by sound. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 125 — the same as the Torah word ענה, “to answer, afflict”. That number points to Torah page 125 of 354 — in the portion Yitro. What that portion is about: Jethro's counsel on judges; standing at Sinai; the Ten Utterances; “you shall not make yourself an idol”. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Psalms 92:2. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Toussaint” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: טוסן. 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 טוסן gives 125.

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) — 775. A Torah word with the same number is תעשה — “you shall make” (Genesis 6:14).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 26. A Torah word with the same number is והיה — “and it became” (Genesis 2:10).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 44. A Torah word with the same number is ילד — “to bear, give birth” (Genesis 3:16).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 516. A Torah word with the same number is גרגשי — “Girgashite” (Genesis 10:16).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 6217.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 224. A Torah word with the same number is דרך — “way, road” (Genesis 3:24).
The letters that come out are נפחט — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 147. A Torah word with the same number is צאנו — “his flock” (Genesis 4:4).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 657. A Torah word with the same number is ותרומה — “and a contribution” (Exodus 29:28).

The name טוסן 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 נ. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 2 such verses. The first of them is Psalms 92:2:
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.
