The Dictionary of Polish Place Names (Nazwy Miejscowe Polski) explains the origin of place names in Poland and details how the place name changed over time.
Volume IX of Nazwy Miejscowe Polski lists one place called Pomaski-Jałbrzyki. This entry is for a vanished village which belonged to the Szwelice parish. Pomaski-Jałbrzyki would have been in the Ostrołęka Voivodeship in the years 1975-1998. The only mention of the village was as Pomaski Jalbrziki in 1582.
The name was a compound. For the first part see Pomaski Wielkie; the second part was from the name of a settlement Jałbrzyk in the 1st half of the 16th century.
