Ferdinand was the eldest son of Francis II, Holy Roman Emperor and Maria Theresa of Naples and Sicily. As a result of his parents' genetic closeness (they were double first cousins), Ferdinand suffered from epilepsy, hydrocephalus, neurological problems, and a speech impediment.

He was educated by Baron Josef Kalasanz von Erberg, and his wife Josephine, née Gräfin von Attems
