Mount Everest has several glaciers which feed a number of rivers as they melt.
The Khumbu glacier feeds the Lobujya River in Nepal. The Pumori and Rongbuk glaciers feed the Rong River in Tibet. The Kangshung glacier feeds the Rama River in Tibet.

The Brahmaputra and the Ganges are the major rivers that have their origins at Mt. Everest. But they don't flow down it. I don't think any river does that.

No River flows down from Mount Everest.
Mount Everest is the name of one peak (only the peak itself, not the whole mountain) in Himalayas, which has hundreds of peaks above 7000 meters (7Km) high.
No River can just originate from a single peak.
The rivers get their input from tributaries, which are spread over a large are of the mountain sides.
The rivers which flow down from Himalayas are:
Indus, Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi, Sutlej , Bias, flowing towards Pakistan and Jamna and Ganga flowing towards India.
