Is it permissible to utilize money acquired from bank interest and give some of it to a poor daughter?

Usury is a major sin. Its interest must be disposed of by spending it on general Muslim welfare or their poor. It is permissible to give some of this interest to a poor daughter if her maintenance is not obligatory upon the questioner; otherwise, it is not permissible because it would benefit him.
