If you look on free bmd, there are no female Walter children born in Leeds in 1926.
There are girls born in Doncaster, Gt.Ouseburn and Wharfedale in Yorkshire.

Ela, I suppose what you need is to look at the electoral register to see first names for this couple. If nobody on here can help, you might ask the staff at the archives. Found this:

'The Information Centre, Leeds Central library has the limited edition of the Electoral Roll. Staff will do a quick search for you if you simply want them to check one name at a particular address - 0113 247 8282. However, entries are made by street name, not by personal name, so unless you know the address of your friend, it will be a laborious task to look through the entire rolls, and fees are charged.'

You could give them a ring.
