One Gaelicized version of Walter is Bhaltair. I have a good book of Irish/Scotiish Gaelic names and another on names in general, but I can't seem to find either of them at the moment. If no one else comes up with anything, I'll get back to you as soon as I find the books (they are here somewhere....)
