In the Book of Jubilees, known to have been in use from the late 2nd century BC, Wife of Noah - Emzara.
In the "Book of Jasher", known only from 1625 AD, as well as some earlier rabbinical sources, the name of Noah's wife is said to be Naamah
Irish folklore is rich in traditions and legends regarding noah tell of his wife being named Olla.
so it is unclear what her name really was but my gut feeling is that it was emzara from which the name zara is probably decended.

There does not seem to be any passages in the Bible referring to her other than the account beginning in Genesis 7:7 which mentions Noah's wife. His wife is not named in the Bible for certain; however, according to Jewish tradition her name is Naamah.
Why Tubal-cain's sister (a daughter of Lamech by his wife Zillah, and sister of Tubal-cain, a descendant of Cain) should be specifically mentioned is unknown. Jewish tradition made her Noah's wife. Her name, meaning "the beautiful" or "the pleasant one," reflects the worldly mind of the Cainites, who looked for beauty rather than for character as the chief attraction in women.

Noah's wife's name?
she is
Mrs Noah....
The Bible did not consider this mother of all mankind to be worthy of having her name recorded. (and nope it is not in Genesis as several other respondents who never read their bibles think)
