Etymology: < the name of Adam (see Adam n.¹) + -ish suffix¹. Compare earlier old Adamish adj. at old Adam n. Derivatives.The quotation below may be evidence of Adamish rather than old Adamish , but the later editions remove the comma (see quot. ?1577 for old Adamish adj. at old Adam n. Derivatives), and the latter reading seems contextually the more likely:1569 A. Golding tr. N. Hemmingsen Postill f. 16^v His new birth, which sanctifieth the old, Adamish and corrupt birth.

Now rare.
