Give me the name of a character, pairing, 'verse, or story I've written, and I'll give you 3-5 facts about writing it/them. Headcanon, backstory, missing scenes, etc.

The one thing I don't know is how daemons are named? Do your parents name you and your daemon, or do you name your daemon and if so, what do they call your daemon until you're old enough to speak?

Unfortunately, how a daemon gets its name isn't explained in the books. Fanfic seems to go with the idea the child just knows or that the parents daemons' give the daemon a name.

Oh, I hadn't thought of the parents' daemon naming them. That's a cool idea.

Yes! I think that idea goes back an interview Phillip Pullman gave so perhaps it could be considered canon-ish.
