I've heard of Albros/Albrosius from alb (white) + rhos (horse) but I can't remember which reference it was in. It was probably something I read at my grans actually - she had tons of translated-from-the-German novels for some reason. If I think of which book it was in I'll post but you might try searching for Albros and variants thereof as names often get changed over time to fit in with fashions and the Wal- element was at one time quite the trend. I'd also look without the Latinised -ius ending - it was often required by the church (Latin being the language of the high church) and would be tacked on to names in the native language only on the baptismal record and thus never really be used by the bearer.
Good luck!
