Lilith
First wife, mythologically
Lilith is a figure from Jewish mythology, often described as Adam's first wife before Eve, who refused to submit and was cast out of Eden.
In later folklore she became a demon associated with night, seduction, and harm to infants.
The name now evokes female independence, defiance, or dark feminine power: She had a Lilith energy—untamed and unapologetic. (Lowercase lilith occasionally appears as a common noun for a night demon or femme fatale figure.)
