Approximately how many light years is the North Star from Earth?

The North Star (Polaris) is located approximately 430 to 447 light-years from Earth. 
This distance is based on modern measurements—including precision data from the Gaia space telescope—which have established the distance at roughly \(447 \pm 1\) light-years. Earlier estimates and historic satellite data occasionally placed the triple-star system closer or farther away (ranging between 323 and 434 light-years), but ongoing modern astrometry confirms the system sits just under 450 light-years away.

What is the name of the girl Bruce Springsteen is singing to in the song "Born to Run"?

The girl in the song "Born to Run" is named Wendy. 
Springsteen revealed that he named several women in his classic songs—such as Wendy in "Born to Run" and Mary in later tracks—but they are largely composite characters rather than specific real people. The name Wendy was partly chosen for its lyrical sound and mythic quality, and it was also inspired by a Peter Pan poster he had on his wall.
