Shiva did have a daughter, she is know as MANSA devi the snake goddess, she was born when the mother of snakes, KUDRU the wife of Rishi KASHYAPA made a snake statue which was touched by Shiva's seed and thus she was born. It was her son Astaka Rishi who managed to stop the great snake sacrifice in the mahabharat!

There is also a legend about Shiva and Parvati's daughter called Ashokasundari who marries Nahusha. Ashokasundari was born out of Parvati's desire to test the Kalpavriksha.
