Inanna's twin brother was [[Utu]] (known as Shamash in Akkadian), the god of the sun and justice. In Sumerian texts, Inanna and Utu are shown as extremely close; some modern authors perceive their relationship as bordering on [[incest]]uous. In the myth of her descent into the underworld, Inanna addresses [[Ereshkigal]], the queen of the underworld, as her "older sister",{{sfn|Black|Green|1992|page=77}}{{sfn|Pryke|2017|page=108}} but the two goddesses almost never appear together in Sumerian literature{{sfn|Pryke|2017|page=108}} and were not placed in the same category in god lists.{{sfn|Wiggermann|1997|p=47-48}} Due to Hurrian influence, in some neo-Assyrian sources (for example penalty clauses) Ishtar was also associated with [[Adad]], with the relationship mirroring that between [[Shaushka]] and her brother [[Teshub]] in [[Hurrian mythology]].{{sfn|Schwemer|2007|p=157}}
The most common tradition regarded Nanna and his wife Ningal as her parents.{{sfn|Asher-Greve|Westenholz|2013|p=230}}{{sfn|Wilcke|1980|p=80}} Examples of it are present in sources as diverse as a god list from the [[Early Dynastic Period (Mesopotamia)|Early Dynastic period]],{{sfn|Asher-Greve|Westenholz|2013|p=45}} a hymn of [[Ishme-Dagan]] relaying how Enlil and Ninlil bestowed Inanna's powers upon her,{{sfn|Asher-Greve|Westenholz|2013|p=75}} a late syncretic hymn to [[Nanaya]],{{sfn|Asher-Greve|Westenholz|2013|p=116}} and an Akkadian ritual from [[Hattusa]].{{sfn|Beckman|2002|p=37}} While some authors assert that in Uruk Inanna was usually regarded as the daughter of the sky god [[Anu|An]],{{sfn|Black|Green|1992|page=108}}{{sfn|Leick|1998|page=88}}{{Sfn|Brandão|2019|pp=47, 74}} it is possible that references to him as her father are only referring to his status as an ancestor of Nanna and thus his daughter.{{sfn|Wilcke|1980|p=80}} In literary texts, [[Enlil]] or [[Enki]] may be addressed as her fathers{{sfn|Black|Green|1992|page=108}}{{sfn|Leick|1998|page=88}}{{sfn|Brandão|2019|p=74}} but references to major gods being "fathers" can also be examples of the use of this word as an epithet indicating seniority.<ref>
