Genesis 4:17 says, "Cain lay with his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch." Who was his wife? It is implied in the biblical text that Cain married one of his sisters. Several facts lead us to this conclusion.
First, it is clear that Adam and Eve had a number of children. Genesis 5:4 says, "After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters." Since Adam and Eve were the first man and woman, and since God had commanded them (and their descendants) to be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28), it seems reasonable to conclude that Cain married one of his many sisters. It is also possible that he married a niece or even a grandniece.
One must keep in mind that in the early years of the human race there were no genetic defects that had yet developed as a result of the fall of man. By the time of Abraham, God had not yet declared this kind of marriage to be contrary to His will (see Genesis 20:12). Laws governing incest apparently did not become enacted until the time of Moses (Lev 18:7-17; 20:11,12,14,17,20,21). Hence, there was no prohibition regarding marrying a sister (or niece or grandniece) in the days of Cain.

All humans being from the past to the present days. How can this be otherwise. Even if my theory that God gave each male descendant a Eve was correct, all the births that came afterwards should be Adam's descendants also. However, there was a great flood and all humans and animals were drown in that flood. So the descendants after that can be said are from the family of Noah. So be ready for the shock if you don't accept that as fact..

Unknown.
But that is what the Bible is all about.
Adam and Eve, umbilical cord to umbilical cord would come Christ.
Eve is called the mother of all living because Christ would come from her linage.
Not because Adam and Eve were the first of mankind which is fallacy.
Adam or ADHAM was FORMED on the eighth day.
Mankind was made or created on the sixth day.
The word “man” (Gen.1:26) in the Hebrew text looks like this ( ××× ), with no article means “MANKIND”, transliterated is (adam).
><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><> ><>
ADHAM
Gen.2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
The word “man” (Gen.2:7) in the Hebrew text looks like this ……………… ( ×ת־×××× ), with article and particle means “THIS SAME MAN ADHAM”, transliterated is (eth-Ha adham).

the Bible does not mention the other children's names. Just says, that Adam and Eve had many more sons and daughters.
One of the forbidden books of the Bible (The Book of Adam and Eve), does not even mention the other children's names. Cain, Abel, and Seth are the only ones mentioned.

As is most of Biblical genealogy, the names of the women are not listed.

We don't know the names of their daughters, but we know they had daughters. And for me, that's enough.
