Default Adam had more than one wife????
I've never heard this before until today when an online friend began asking me what Mormon's believe. She said she heard that Adam had a second wife named Lilith.

Does anyone know the origin of this?

I believe it is an old Jewish legend. I've never heard it associated with us.

Lilith left Adam after she refused to become subservient to him and then would not return to the Garden of Eden after she mated with archangel Samael.
Poor Adam, his first wife cheats on him with some archangel then his second wife gets him evicted from paradise.

Si, an old Jewish legend.

Also the name of an awesome demon character on Supernatural.

I saw that. I also saw an article by David L.C.E. Whitcombe, an Art Historian. But that's all I could find. So I thought I'd ask here.

I've seen little girls with the name. Still around. Keep in mind, many people find the concept of Lilith as something to celebrate.
