Russian term of endearment for a little girl

I'm in the process of writing a Star Trek fic and have run into some difficulty finding an appropriate Russian term of endearment for Chekov to use for a six year old girl who would be roughly equivalent to a little sister in terms of their relationship.

My google search and search of the tags turned up mostly terms related to adults or to boys. The only options I've been able to find are "malyshka" and "lastochka". Would those be appropriate terms for a small girl?

I'd also be interested in any way to give her a Russian nickname, as her given name is Joanna.
