A First Family is an unofficial title for the family of the head of state or head of government of a country (usually a republic).

A First Family usually consists of:
*The head of state or head of government
*The First Lady or First Gentleman
*Any children of the couple

In the comic book series Astro City, the First Family is the name of a family of super-powered adventurers. "First Family" is also the title of the second novel in the Amtrak Wars series.

In the series Doctor Who, in the episode Partners in Crime, the First Family commissioned Miss Foster to create the Adipose.

The First Family is also a collection of "Australopithecus afarensis" fossils discovered at Hadar in Ethiopia, near the location of another famous "A. afarensis", Lucy. "A. afarensis" is believed to be the first habitual bipedal hominid and a direct ancestor of "Homo sapiens". This species lived between 3.9 million to 2.9 million years ago.
