The name "Wiig" hails from the area of Sogn og Fjordane in Norway. She moved with her family to Lancaster, Pennsylvania at the age of three. Wiig later moved to Rochester, New York, where she attended and graduated from Brighton High School. Wiig went on to attend the University of Arizona with a major in art. She took an acting class in university to fulfill a course requirement; her teacher suggested she continue to act. She dropped out and relocated to Los Angeles, where she joined The Groundlings while working odd jobs to support herself.
