Is there any reference of William in the bible?

No, the name William did not exist at the time of the Old or New
Testament and it was not a name that was used in Israel or the
surrounding areas.
William comes from a very old Germanic name, later being
introduced to England by the Normans in 1066. Nobody in England was
called William before that date.
