Hi! Anya, Athena is not to be confused with Era, Zeus' wife and mother of Hephaestus.
Athena was venerated as "Parthenos"= virgin, and in her honour every three years there were "Panathenaean games".
She was also known as Athena Polias and Athena Hygieia (protector of cities and hygiene).
Nike was not the "husband of Athena" ( omosex marriages were not permitted!); Nike it's "the power", the victorious power of Zeus and of .. Athena Pallas, who was the second power of the Olympus.
Athena Nike had a temple dedicated on the west side of the Acropolis of Athen (Athena Apteros= Athena without wings, so she could not leave the city!).

She was the Goddess of Wisdom and a Virgin. She was the daughter of Zeus and Metis (Wisdom. Before she was born,Zeus was told that the child he had fathered was going to drive him from his throne and thus he just ripped her out of her mother's belly and swallowed her. However Athena sprung fully armed out of the side of his head. This is the Myth told us by Hesiodus. Athena was also a Warrior and the Protectres of the City of Athens,by who's citizens she was simply called "The Goddess",the Parthenon was built in her honor and literally means " The House of the Virgin"; Parthenos or Parthena being the Greek words for Virgin. Hope this helps.

As far as I know, Athena had no children and also was not married to Nike. Nike was known as another aspect of Athena, as the goddess of victorious battle.

Hephaestus lusted for her and she resisted him, he ejaculated on here leg she wiped it off with something and dropped it on the earth, Erichthonius was born from that, Athena regarded him as a son and brought him up without telling the other Gods.
Then again he is sometimes described as the Son of Atthis

Anthena was governed by reasoning and not emotion and as such had no spouse and also no children according to Greek Mythology.
