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.

Where in the bible was the name Lilith mentioned?

The name Lilith appears in the Bible in Isaiah 34:14, where it is translated as "screech owl" or "night creature" in many versions.

While the figure of Lilith has been more elaborately developed in Jewish folklore and mysticism, her mention in the biblical text is brief and somewhat ambiguous.
