Rabbinic tradition states Ishmael had two wives named Aisha and Fatima.
The twelve sons of Ishmael, were named Nebaioth, Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam, Mishma, Dumah, Massa, Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Ishmael had at least one daughter named Mahalath or Bashemath

Genesis 25:13
And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
14 And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
15 Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.
Esau married one of Ishmael's daughters, Mahalath...
Nabojoth was her sister.
Ge 28:9 Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives which he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife.
Daughter #3 is found in Genesis 36:3
And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.

Ishmael's sons are in Gen.25, starting v. 12.
I think his wife is un-named.
