Noah went and took a wife, and he chose Naamah the daughter of Enoch, and she was five hundred and eighty years old.

- Book of Jasher 5:15

Most experts on the subjects would agree that her name was probably Naamah (Haykel or Titea are also remote possibilities) The name of the woman that Noah chose to be his wife is not listed in The Bible. In fact, none of the 4 females (Noah's wife, Shem's wife, Ham's wife, and Japheth's wife) who were saved from the Great Flood by being aboard Noah's Ark with their Ark are ever mentioned by name in Scriptures. This has not stopped a vast amount of speculation into the actual names of the four female passengers aboard Noah's Ark.

200-150 BC = Emzara (The Book of Jubilees)

100-300 AD = Norea (Epiphanius)

350 AD = Haykêl (Syriac Book of the Cave of Treasures)

930 AD = Haykêl (Patriarch Eutychius of Alexandria)

900-1100 AD = Naamah (Book of Jasher Chapter 5)

1000 AD = Phiapphara, Sphiarphara (Anglo-Saxon translation Heptateuch, Ælfric of Eynsham)

1000-1100 AD = Naamah (Rashi's commentary on Genesis)

1200-1300 AD = Puarphara (Middle English Book of Genesis)

1400-1500 AD = Dalida (Middle English Catechism)

1400-1500 AD = Tytea (Pseudo-Berossus, by Annio da Viterbo)

1842 AD = Tytea or Phuarphara (Itinerario da India por terra ate a ilha de Chypre, by Gaspar Rodriguez de S. Bernardino) .

1830-1850 AD = Titea Magna (Common-place Book, by Robert Southey)

1670 AD = Vesta (Comte de Gabalis)

1986 AD = Matred (Many Waters, by Madeleine L'Engle)

1954 AD = Esther (Clifford Odets' play The Flowering Peach)

2014 AD = Naameh (Movie Noah, by Darren Aronofsky)

- According to some Muslim commentators Noah had an infidel wife named Waila, who perished in the deluge (George Sale's Commentary on the Quran 1734),

- According to Armenian tradition Noah's wife was Nemzar, Noyemzar or Noyanzar.

- According to Mandaean literature, of uncertain antiquity Noah's wife was Nuraita (or Nhuraitha, Anhuraita)

- According to the Miautso people of China: Gaw Bo-lu-en.

- According to the Nuwaubian Nation: Naama, Waala, and Mubiyna, of whom only Naama survives the flood in the Ark. (1996 AD The Holy Tablet sacred text)

14 And the Lord said unto Noah, Take unto thee a wife, and beget children, for I have seen thee righteous before me in this generation.

15 And thou shalt raise up seed, and thy children with thee, in the midst of the earth; and Noah went and took a wife, and he chose Naamah the daughter of Enoch, and she was five hundred and eighty years old.

16 And Noah was four hundred and ninety-eight years old, when he took Naamah for a wife.

17 And Naamah conceived and bare a son, and he called his name Japheth, saying, God has enlarged me in the earth; and she conceived again and bare a son, and he called his name Shem, saying, God has made me a remnant, to raise up seed in the midst of the earth.

18 And Noah was five hundred and two years old when Naamah bare Shem, and the boys grew up and went in the ways of the Lord, in all that Methuselah and Noah their father taught them.

Noah's wife was the same Naamah who is named in Genesis ch.4 (Rashi commentary, quoting the ancient Midrash).
