     Most directly, you could create a class to hold the pair of
streams, and make the constructor variadic in the pairs:

	private static class Pair {
	    private final Stream<String> strings;
	    private final Stream<Number> numbers;
	    // ...
	}

	FIRST (
	    new Pair(Stream.of("hello", "foo", "bar"),
	             Stream.of(1, 4, 7)
	);
	
	myEnum(Pair... pairs) { ... }



However, this still leaves the annoying possibility that the two
streams of a pair might have different lengths.  Why not turn the
whole thing inside-out, and deal with String/Number pairs right
from the beginning?

	private static class Pair {
	    private final String string;
	    private final Number number;
	    // ...
	}

	FIRST (
	    new Pair("hello", 1),
	    new Pair("foo", 4),
	    new Pair("bar", 7)
	);

	myEnum(Pair... pairs) { ... }

     That is, in your example the streams create a problem (length
mismatch) and don't appear to offer a benefit -- so why use them?
