The word "daimon" is correct and can be used in written English.
It is most often used in the context of ancient Greek philosophy and mythology, to refer to a kind ofspirit or divine power that could guide or influence a person's actions. For example, "The Delphic Oracle was believed to possess a daimon that could provide wise counsel and divine guidance."
Owing to the rise of individualism and also to the prevalence of Greek ideas concerning a guardian spirit, or daimon, the genius lost its original meaning and came to be a sort of personification of the individual's natural desires and appetites.
The genius came to be thought of as a sort of guardian angel, a higher self; and, as the Greek daimon was sometimes rationalized into the individual's character or temper, so also the poet Horace half-seriously said that only the genius knows what makes one person so different from another, adding that he is a god who is born and dies with each one of us.

It is likely that he used the Greek word psychê to refer to the transmigrating soul, since this is the word used by all sources reporting his views, unlike Empedocles, who used daimon.
