I've heard "childhood home," which gives some wiggle room. First pet + place I grew up = Angel St. James. If it had to be where my parents lived when I was born, it's Angel Parker Hill, I think. Ew.
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
From the "life is wierd sometimes file:
My answering machine isn't very good for many reasons. Once 2 years ago there was a brief power outage on a Thursday. Ever since, whenever there is a message the playback always starts with "Thursday, 5:00pm, Power Outage" in a smooth baritone.
So, tonight I come home and the machine is flashing and doing it's annoying beeping thing to tell me there are messages. I start the playback, the power outage thing comes on and then there's someone saying "sorry, wrong number." But there's another message, so the machine says "Thursday, 5:00pm Power Outage" and the power went out. Total blackness.
Weird coincidence.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

JOHN Wayne Palmetto, and you'd have something to work with.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Is it the street you were born on, or the street where you first lived?
Well, I'm sure they're more guidelines than rules. If I bent them far enough, I could be Allegra Flower.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My only pets were hermit crabs, which were named Kristy, Claudia, and Dawn. (Yes, I named them after the Babysitters Club. I was seven.) First street was Hudson.

Dick Oakridge is a good one, though.
