Ståhlberg was born in [[Suomussalmi]], in the [[Kainuu]] region of the [[Grand Duchy of Finland]], back when Finland was an autonomous principality under the rule of the [[Russian Empire]]. He was the second child of [[Johan Gabriel Ståhlberg|Johan (Janne) Gabriel Ståhlberg]], an assistant pastor, and Amanda Gustafa Castrén. On both sides of his family, Ståhlberg's male forebears had been [[Lutheran]] clergymen. He was christened ''Carl Johan'' ({{IPA|sv-FI|ˈkɑːrl ˈjuːhɑn|lang}}), but later [[Finnicize]]d his forenames to ''Kaarlo Juho'', as did most [[Fennoman]]s (i.e. the supporters of [[Finnish language]] and culture instead of [[Swedish language|Swedish]]).<ref name="Kansallisbiografia">{{cite web | url = http://www.kansallisbiografia.fi/kb/artikkeli/626/ | title = Ståhlberg, Kaarlo Juho (1865–1952) | first = Markku | last = Tyynilä | website = Kansallisbiografia.fi | date = 7 June 2000 | publisher = Suomalaisen Kirjallisuuden Seura | access-date = 25 August 2020 | language = fi }}</ref>

Ståhlberg and his family lived in [[Lahti]], where he also went for grammar school. Ståhlberg's father died when he was a boy, leaving his family in a difficult financial position. The family moved to [[Oulu]], where the children entered school. Kaarlo's mother Amanda worked to support the family until her death in 1879.<ref name="Kansallisbiografia"/> Ståhlberg's family had always spoken and supported the [[Finnish language]], and the young Ståhlberg was enrolled in [[Oulun Lyseon Lukio|Oulu's private Finnish lycee]], where he would excel, and was the primus of his class. In 1889 he graduated as a [[Bachelor of Arts]] in [[Law]] from the [[University of Helsinki]]. He gained his [[Doctorate]] in Law in 1893.
