The word לילת occurs in the Hebrew Bible as a noun meaning "night spirit" but it does not occur as a Name. The character of Lilith (Adam's first wife) is only mentioned in the Talmud.

Was Lilith a real person and Adams's wife?

We have two main sources for information on much of Jewish religion - the Bible and Jewish midrash. Lilith is not actually mentioned in the Bible, but does form part of Jewish midrash, where she is said to have been Adam's first wife. Although the name Lilith is often considered to be from the Hebrew Laylah(night), she is probably based on the Babylonian female demon, Lilitu, so on that basis we should consider her a demon, not a real person.
