neutral  philgoddard: This doesn't quite work, assuming the Xs at the end are the spouse's name

agree  MollyRose: This sounds more natural than the others proposed. The name can be added like this, "and his spouse's (name) daughter." Some translators might think this would be taking too much liberty, though.

who is the daughter of (her-)self and of (her) spouse


Explanation:
It's unclear who the subject of the phrase is: the mother or the father, either being able to register such birth. Cut to MPGS.

...who is his and his spouse's daughter... lends itself to further ambiguity as 1. his may refer to the spouse or the daughter and 2. such spouse, if the father, may have adopted a non-biological child at birth.

Truly a PRO question for lateral thinkers.
