Who is Adnan? Was he a prophet?

Question

Muyhi Al din posted a link which showed a family in which all the Prophets of Islam were connected. I recognized every name which was highlighted in Blue (meaning they were a Prophet/messenger) except one which the person's name was Adnan.

Who is he?

He seems to come in the middle of the lineage which directs Ishmael to Muhammad.

Here is the link:
