Jai Shri KRshNa
You can find that information in VaishNav literature written by the 6 Goswamis, which are theatre-plays and the 3rd is a bhAv-purNa story
1. Vidagdha MAdhav
2. Lalita-MAdhav
3. BRhat-BhagvatAmrut
The smriti-shastra that comes closest is
1. Garga Samhita
2. Bramha-vaivarta purAN
although it may not have the names.
It is said that the shaD-Goswami (the 6 goswamis that were disciples Chaitanya Mahaprabhu), were vraja-Gopis from the time of KRshNa-avatAr who had taken birth again in Kali Yuga (17th century) out of compassion for mankind, to teach bhakti.

I found this website to be the best for quick information.
Gopi Gita - The Song of the longing heart with commentary by Sri Swami Vishwananda
A retelling of a small part of the 10th canto of the Bhagavata Purana called Gopi Gita. Personally I‘m wary of Vishwananda‘s overly emotional style but here it fits well.
Brhat-BhagvatAmrut
If that‘s the same as Brhad-Bhagavatamrta, the gopis do appear in it in Part II, but it doesn‘t offer so much detailed information about the gopis because in Part II, it‘s more focused on Krishna as a child. A Gaudiya Vaishnava text.
Sri Ujjvala-Nilamani of Rupa Gosvami
Also A Gaudiya Vaishnava text.
