Description
A set of the younger female characters from the Night Vale/His Dark Materials AU .Tamika Flynn: twelve going on thirteen. Daemon: Rashi, who settled as an African buffalo toward the end of the Summer Reading Program. (Strexcorp executives tend to have lion daemons. This is how African buffalo deal with lions .)
Intern Dana: for purposes of this story, she's almost sixteen. Goes through a witch-style separation ordeal, then a time-and-dimension-crossing journey. Her earrings here are anchors; the topmost meaning of the anchor on the alethiometer is "hope." Daemon: Eustathias, not shown.
Megan Wallaby: a kindergarten-age girl born a couple of months ago, whose body is a detached adult man's hand. Daemon: Isidorus, unsettled, but always a detached animal's foot.

Thanks!
Different ways for different daemons. With Dana, I looked up the names of Greek saints (which is also where Lyra's daemon's name comes from). Sometimes I look through words, last names, and uncommon first names of a language, looking for nice sounds to put together (Spanish ones for Carlos, French for Henriette, German for Köhler). There was something specific I looked up for Tamika, but can't for the life of me remember what -- maybe it was African plants, and picking something that sounded like raffia? Something that sounded like something, that's all I remember ^_^; And once in a while I'll just go with an online fantasy name generator. I think that's where Megan's daemon's name came from.
