The 5 ie no longer supported, no iOS updates. Your only option is to
buy a newer phone. Or try either the compact or enhanced version of
Daniel. As to Siri, I dunno, that depends on the iOS version which is
probably 9, current version is 13, so quite outdated.
Nuance is no help, the voices are integrated into iOS. And I doubt
Infovox, which sells voices, still supports such an old OS.

Will ask the siri one first..can it be removed once installed?
The voiceover voice question has to do with sound quality.
I finally found a discussion thread about this with others noting the
same thing. Daniel who I believe is the UK English voice changed in
its enhanced form a while back. I do not know if it has been improved,
or better still when was the last upgrade to the Daniel voice?
I have an iPhone in the 5 family. it is possible that upgrading IOS
itself, or the voice, if I can, will improve things.
for now though the quality clarity and pronunciation is rather dreadful.
I did not want siri, but apple accessibility, who was talking with the
person helping me use the phone suggested the download because
voiceover itself was not working well according to them.
Siri, which was male in this case, sounded worse than the Daniel voice
itself.
I believe? Nuance makes the apple voices. Is there any way to reach
them directly?
last of all, I understand there are other options for voices, with my
wondering about direct contacts too, as I will have to walk someone else
through reaching them.
My situation is that since most software generated speech is in a
frequency range that stimulates my brain's dizzy centres, experimenting
can make me rather sick. That is what happened when trying to resolve
the Daniel / male siri situation.
meaning I really want to plan ahead before testing anything further.
ideas?
