Rabbinic literature
The Genesis Rabba midrash lists Naamah , the daughter of Lamech and sister of Tubal-Cain , as the wife of Noah, as does the eleventh century Jewish commentator Rashi .
In the mediaeval midrash Book of Jasher Chapter 5:15 , the name of Noah's wife is said to be Naamah, daughter of Enoch ; that would mean Noah married his great-aunt.
Gill and others evidently regarded the name Naamah as resulting from confusion between the names of Ham's wife and Noah's wife in some traditions.

Book of Jubilees
In the Book of Jubilees , known to have been in use from the late 2nd century BC, the names of the wives of Noah , Shem , Ham and Japheth are as follows:
Wife of Noah - Emzara, daughter of Rake'el, son of Methuselah
Wife of Shem - Sedeqetelebab
Wife of Ham - Ne'elatama'uk or Na'eltama'uk

It adds that the three sons after some years struck out in different directions from the original camp near Mount Ararat and founded three villages bearing the names of these three mothers of the human race.
