since we spotted it first we can call the milky way, the milky way.

so our cosmic address is something like
Earth
Solar System
Orion arm (?) (region within our galaxy)
The Milky Way (galaxy)
The Local Group (local group of closest galaxies)
The Virgo Supercluster - (supercluster group of galaxies)
The (observable) Universe
