Old German names like Albrecht would fit well in a projected, that is, reasonable, but not strictly canonical context.
The Rohirrim have OE names because they needed to seem archaic compared to Westron/English. Their ancestors in the north had Gothic names; the Beornings have OE names as well. If we were to give people somewhere around Rhovanion their own language or at least dialect of Westron, Old or Middle High German could be a good guess.
