Daneeka's name was listed on a personnel assignment log

Daneeka was a Starfleet officer in the 24th century.

In the 2360s, this individual served under Captain Leyton aboard the USS Okinawa when Benjamin Sisko was the ship's executive officer.

In 2372, this individual was assigned to Engineering Operations. The effective date of this assignment was 49264. This officer was one of over four hundred officers reassigned in a three week period by Leyton. This officer's name was listed in the personnel assignment log that was displayed on a screen in Benjamin Sisko's temporary office in Starfleet Headquarters. (DS9: "Paradise Lost", okudagram)

The unauthorized reference book The Nitpicker's Guide for Deep Space Nine Trekkers (p. 339) notes that the crew of the Okinawa (apart from Sisko) were named after characters in Joseph Heller's novel Catch-22. Doc Daneeka was a character in the novel.
The Star Trek Customizable Card Game also gives him the name of Daneeka, however did not mention his background with Leyton, but suggested that Daneeka was an enlisted technician aboard the USS Enterprise-D.
