Athena Long - I can't find any reference online to a character named Athena Long. Can you provide more information about this character? The 'Long' surname was affixed to basically ALL the characters at the end of Heinlein's final Future History book and I was able to find that tag for her on AO3. Athena Long is the AI that takes Minerva's place when Minerva 'twins' herself before opting to move her consciousness into a new body. I believe she is present in the end of Time Enough For Love, Number of the Beast, The Cat Who Walks Through Walls, and To Sail Beyond the Sunset.
Dora Long - I can't find any reference online to a character named Dora Long. I do see a mention of a character referred to as "Dora (computer)" - is this the character intended? Same explanation for the last name, same books. Dora (computer) is simplistic, as she is an AI inhabiting a space ship that is eventually capable of time travel. She's basically adopted as a sister to the twins of Lazarus Long as well. She never takes a human body.
