Ko te whaea o Wilde he uri Itari tawhiti, a, i raro i te ingoa "Speranza" (te kupu Itari mo te 'whakaaro'), i tuhi waiata mo nga Young Irishers hurihuri i te 1848; he tangata whenua Irish ia. I pānuihia e ia nga waiata a te Young Irishers ki a Oscar raua ko Willie, i whakauruhia te aroha o enei kaitito ki roto i ana tama. Ko te hiahia o Lady Wilde ki te whakaoranga-hou i whakaatuhia i roto i nga peita me nga kopae o Kariki onamata me Roma i tona kaainga. Ko William Wilde te taakuta oto-ophthalmologic (taringa me te kanohi) o Ireland, a i whakawhiwhia ki a ia i te tau 1864 mo ana ratonga hei kaitohutohu hauora me te kaiawhina Komihana ki nga tatauranga o Ireland. I tuhia hoki e ia nga pukapuka mo te rauropi o Ireland me nga korero a nga kaiahuwhenua. He tangata atawhai rongonui, ko tana whare rongoa mo te tiaki i nga rawakore o te taone nui i muri o te Whare Wananga o Trinity, i Dublin, ko ia te kaiwhakauru o te Dublin Eye and Ear Hospital, kei Adelaide Road inaianei. I te taha o tona papa, ko Wilde te uri o te tangata whenua o te Netherlands, a Colonel de Wilde, i haere ki Ireland me te ope whakaeke a Kingi William o Orange i te tau 1690. I te taha o tona whaea, ko nga tupuna o Wilde he kaihanga pereki mai i County Durham i heke ki Ireland i etahi wa i nga tau 1770. I iriiria a Wilde i a ia e tamariki ana i te Hahi o St. Mark, Dublin, te hahi o te Hahi o Ireland (Anglican). I te katinga o te whare karakia, ka nekehia nga tuhinga ki te whare karakia tata o St. Ann, Dawson Street. Ko Davis Coakley e whakahua ana i tetahi iriiringa tuarua na te tohunga Katorika, Father Prideaux Fox, i whakahoahoa ki te whaea o Oscar tata ki te 1859. E ai ki te whakaaturanga a Fox i roto i te Donahoe's Magazine i te tau 1905, ka toro atu a Jane Wilde ki tana whare karakia i Glencree, County Wicklow, mo te Mass, ka kawe i ana tama ki a ia. Katahi ka tono ia ki a Father Fox kia iriiria ana tama. I penei te whakaahuatanga a Fox:  Pātai: He aha te whakamāoritanga o te kupu tumanako i te reo Itari?
