The Bible never says anything specifically about Adam having any wife other than Eve. To be fair, it also doesn't specifically and unambiguously state that he didn't, though certain passages in the New Testament do rather strongly imply it.

Occasionally Genesis 1:27 is taken to imply that the first woman was created at the same time as the first man. However, neither of them are given names at that point.

Starting around Genesis 2:7 the story "backs up" and fills in some of the details; as that passage continues, it becomes clear that the man was created first and the woman was created later. There's no particularly good reason within the text itself to believe that this section is anything other than an expanded version of Genesis 1:27.

In particular, since the passage in chapter 2 describes the creation of the first man again, it does not make a great deal of sense to assume that the man is the same man, but the women are different.

In Jewish Mythology, Adam's first wife was Lillith. She was too headstrong and was banished to become a demoness who spawns vampire ghouls in the deserts.
