Early life
Ferrell was born in Irvine, California, on July 16, 1967, to Betty Kay (née Overman), a teacher at Old Mill School elementary school and Santa Ana College, and Roy Lee Ferrell Jr. (born 1941), who played saxophone and keyboards for the Righteous Brothers. His parents were both natives of Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina. In 1964, they immigrated to California. Ferrell's ancestry includes English, German, and Irish. Ferrell, an infant, suffered from pyloric stenosis and underwent a pyloromyotomy to correct the condition. Patrick, his younger brother, has died.
His parents divorced when he was eight years old. "I was the kind of kid who would say, 'Hey, look at the bright side,' Ferrell described the divorce: "I was the kind of kid who would say, 'Hey, look at the bright side!' We'll have two Christmases'." The divorce was amicable, and both parents were committed to their children. His father's line of work was the most significant issue. His paychecks were never steady as a showman, and he went from home for months at a time. Ferrell didn't want to go into show business and instead have a steady job as a result of rising up in this environment.
Ferrell attended Culverdale Elementary School first and then attended Rancho San Joaquin Middle School, both in Irvine. He played for University High School in Irvine and was a kicker for the school's varsity football team. In addition to serving on the student council, he was also on the soccer team and captain of the basketball team. Ferrell called third grade "a pivotal year." He discovered that if he pretended to smash his head against the wall, or if he tripped and collapsed on purpose, he would make his classmates laugh, which was a great way to make friends. He said Irvine's dullness contributed to his humor's development:
Ferrell and a buddy will perform comedy skits over the school's intercom system in his senior year of high school, with the principal's support; the two students would write their own content. Ferrell also appeared in comedic skits in the school's talent showcases. His peers named him "Best Personality" in honor of his education. He enrolled at the University of Southern California, where he studied sports broadcasting and joined the Delta Tau Delta fraternity. He was known for a few pranks in college. He might dress in a janitor's outfit and stroll into his classmates' classes on occasion. He was also known for streaking around campus with a handful of other members of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity. Ferrell completed an internship at a local television station in the sports department, but he didn't love the job.
After graduating with a B.A. degree, I took a B.A. He knew he didn't want to do broadcasting despite his degree in sports studies in 1990. On his second day, he tore a luggage rack off the roof of a van by trying to drive it under a low beam. He also worked as a teller at Wells Fargo, but he fell short of $300 on the first day and $280 on the second; he wasn't stealing the money, but he was just careless and error-prone. Ferrell moved to Los Angeles in 1991, after being compelled by his mother to do something he loved. He auditioned for The Groundlings, a comedy group where he spent time refining his improvisation skills.
Personal life

Through a micro-donations fundraising site, he also raises funds for charity, including his Scholarships for Cancer Survivors campaign.
Ferrell was named as the worst celebrity autographer in 2007 by Autograph magazine. "What's so sad about Will Ferrell's being the worst autograph signer this year has been that he used to be so generous to fans and collectors, as well as a top signer," the newspaper said. What makes him so bad is that he'll taunt people who want his autograph." Ferrell replied, "I don't know how I got on the list." I have a lot of autographs. However, he has confessed to taunting autograph seekers: "I do." I do. 'How badly do you want this autograph?' - I'm like, 'How badly do you want this autograph?''Are you sure?'
"You say you're my biggest fan, but you're wrong." I'll do stuff like that. They have to work it."Ferrell had noted that, although he was well known for his SNL impersonation of President George W. Bush, he didn't bother to visit the President on several occasions, much less for comedic reasons, unlike his SNL predecessor Dana Carvey's memorable interaction with them, fearing of their influence.
