Names and changing them are under the authority of misrad hapnim. http://www.moin.gov.il/ (the site doesn't support any browser except explorer).
If your daughter is not yet 18, both parents have to approve of the name-changing, and have to express this approval in person at misrad haPnim (opening hours of your local office on the website).
The service is free, there are forms online - but they have to be handed in in person.
The seven-year rule stands: however, the minister has the statutory authority to waive the rule when he or she sees fit. Marriage would probably have good chances of approval.
