In his Panarion, Epiphanius (who believed the brothers/sisters of Jesus were children of a previous marriage of Joseph’s) provides names for the sisters of Jesus:
Panarion 78:8:1:
Joseph begot James
when he was somewhere around forty years old. After him he had a son named
Joses—then Simeon after him, then Judah, and two daughters, one named Mary and
one, Salome; and his wife died. (The Panarion of Epiphanius of Salamis,
Books II and III. De Fide [rev ed.; trans. Frank Williams; Nag Hammadi and
Manichaean Studies 79; Leiden: Brill, 2013], 621)
Panarion 78:9:6:
The scripture calls
them brothers to confound [our opponents], and names James, Joses, Simeon,
Judah, Salome and Mary, so that they will learn whose son James is and by which
mother, and understand who is the elder. Jesus was crucified in the
thirty-third year of his incarnation, but it was the twentieth year of Herod
the son of Archelaus. (Ibid., 623)
On the potential source(s) of Epiphanius’
information, Richard Bauckham wrote that
. . . it seems more
likely that he drew these names, along with other information about Joseph’s
first marriage, from some apocryphal source which is no longer extant, probably
one which bore some relation to the Protoevangelium of James, on which
Epiphanius seems also to be dependent (directly or indirectly) in this context.
(Richard Bauckham, Jude and the Relatives of Jesus in the Early Church [Edinburgh:
T&T Clark, 1990], 37)
Elsewhere in his study of the relatives of
Jesus in early Christianity, Bauckham writes that:
I think it likely
that the Salome who appears in ProtJas 19:3-20:3 is this daughter of Joseph, in
which case the tradition of her name goes back to the mid-second century”
(Ibid., 8 n. 13)
Protoevangelium of
James 19-20 reads as follows:
19. And I saw a woman
coming down from the hill-country, and she said to me: O man, whither are you
going? And I said: I am seeking an Hebrew midwife. And she answered and said to
me: Are you of Israel? And I said to her: Yes. And she said: And who is it that
is bringing forth in the cave? And I said: A woman betrothed to me. And she
said to me: Is she not your wife? And I said to her: It is Mary that was reared
in the temple of the Lord, and I obtained her by lot as my wife. And yet she is
not my wife, but has conceived of the Holy Spirit.
And the midwife said
to him: Is this true? And Joseph said to her: Come and see. And the midwife
went away with him. And they stood in the place of the cave, and behold a
luminous cloud overshadowed the cave. And the midwife said: My soul has been
magnified this day, because my eyes have seen strange things — because
salvation has been brought forth to Israel. And immediately the cloud
disappeared out of the cave, and a great light shone in the cave, so that the
eyes could not bear it. And in a little that light gradually decreased, until
the infant appeared, and went and took the breast from His mother Mary. And the
midwife cried out, and said: This is a great day to me, because I have seen
this strange sight. And the midwife went forth out of the cave, and Salome met
her. And she said to her: Salome, Salome, I have a strange sight to relate to
you: a virgin has brought forth — a thing which her nature admits not of. Then
said Salome: As the Lord my God lives, unless I thrust in my finger, and search
the parts, I will not believe that a virgin has brought forth.
20. And the midwife
went in, and said to Mary: Show yourself; for no small controversy has arisen
about you. And Salome put in her finger, and cried out, and said: Woe is me for
mine iniquity and mine unbelief, because I have tempted the living God; and,
behold, my hand is dropping off as if burned with fire. And she bent her knees
before the Lord, saying: O God of my fathers, remember that I am the seed of
Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob; do not make a show of me to the sons of Israel,
but restore me to the poor; for You know, O Lord, that in Your name I have
performed my services, and that I have received my reward at Your hand. And,
behold, an angel of the Lord stood by her, saying to her: Salome, Salome, the
Lord has heard you. Put your hand to the infant, and carry it, and you will
have safety and joy. And Salome went and carried it, saying: I will worship
Him, because a great King has been born to Israel. And, behold, Salome was
immediately cured, and she went forth out of the cave justified. And behold a
voice saying: Salome, Salome, tell not the strange things you have seen, until
the child has come into Jerusalem.
Other sources that may be providing names
to Jesus’ “sisters” include Gospel of Philip 59:
they would be
nourished from the mouth [and] become perfect. The perfect are conceived and
begotten through a kiss. Because of this we kiss each other too, conceiving
from the grace within each other.
There were three who
traveled with the Lord all the time: His mother Mary, her sister, and
Magdalene, who is called his companion; because Mary is his sister, his mother,
and his partner.
"The
Father" and "The Son" are single names; "the Holy
Spirit" is a double name, because they're everywhere. They're in heaven,
they're below, they're hidden, and they're revealed. The Holy Spirit is
revealed below and hidden in heaven.
Those who are holy
are served through the evil powers, because the Holy Spirit has blinded them so
that they think they're serving a (regular) human when they're (really) working
for the holy ones. So a disciple asked the Lord one day about a worldly thing.
He told him, "Ask your Mother, and she'll give you from someone
else."
The apostles said to
the disciples, "May our entire offering acquire salt." They called
[…] "salt." Without it, the offering doesn't [become] acceptable. But
Wisdom [is] childless; because of this [she's] called […], this of salt, the
place they'll […] in their own way. The Holy Spirit […]
The History of Joseph the
Carpenter 2 provides “Lydia” and “Assia” (alt. Lysia) as the names of
Joseph’s daughters:
2. There was a man
whose name was Joseph, sprung from a family of Bethlehem, a town of Judah, and
the city of King David. This same man, being well furnished with wisdom and
learning, was made a priest in the temple of the Lord. He was, besides, skilful
in his trade, which was that of a carpenter; and after the manner of all men,
he married a wife. Moreover, he begot for himself sons and daughters, four
sons, namely, and two daughters. Now these are their names — Judas, Justus,
James, and Simon. The names of the two daughters were Assia and Lydia. At
length the wife of righteous Joseph, a woman intent on the divine glory in all
her works, departed this life. But Joseph, that righteous man, my father after
the flesh, and the spouse of my mother Mary, went away with his sons to his
trade, practising the art of a carpenter.
