Of course Adam and Eve as true father and mother of the human race is false. It's pretty much understood by science that the homo sapien population never dipped below 2,000 at any given time. We can tell this based on our mapped genome. What the bible describes seems more like a genetic experimentation lab. Adam, Lillith and Eve were lab rats, but there were already thousands upon thousands of humans out there in the world at the time and probably Neanderthals as well. Part of me wonders if the garden of eden was actually intended to get Neanderthals to breed with homo sapiens to increase genetic diversity.

Eve's name would be Chavah, giver of life, now shekinah/holy spirit is also giver of life and comforter, also god is giver of life.

There had to be a first someone somewhere

Nope. There certainly does not have to be a first someone. There was a species or group of someones that slowly changed over millions of years into what modern humans look like today. It is impossible to account for racial diversity and other things, in a simple adam and eve scenario 10,000 years ago or whatever.

I'd put their credentials and colleges up against anyone else's.

And I'd still like to see the experiments they have done that suggest new information is never added to DNA. Stop procrastinating and back up the claim. All the actual science experiments I have seen on mutation rates show that is not true.
