Twin sisters of Cain and Abel

While the book of Genesis does not explicitly mention any sisters of Cain nor Abel, the sisters appear in other texts of Abrahamic religions, explaining where Cain acquired a wife (mentioned in Genesis 4:17). The names of the first daughters of Adam and Eve differ widely between sources, but they typically are presented as twin sisters born with Cain and Abel respectively.
