It's not a particularly obscure quotation. It means that if you are a father and you know your own child (which could mean to recognize him or her, or understand him or her) then you are wise. It's said by the clown Gobbo in The Merchant of Venice.

Launcelot Gobbo (a clown, first Shylock's servant and then Bassanio's) says this to Gobbo, his father in The Merchant of Venice (act 2 Scene 2). He has just encountered his father, who does not recognize him.
One version of this oft-quoted adage is: --- He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool. Shun him. He who knows not, and knows that he knows not is a student. Teach him. He who knows, and knows not that he knows, is asleep. Wake him. He who knows, and knows that he knows is wise. Follow him.
Not wise just imaginary
A wise man knows when to hold his tongue.
There is an old common law saying, "A wise child knows his father." We always know who the Mother of a child is, but a name on the birth certificate only means that man is now legally responsible for the child's support, whether he actually fathered the child or not. There is also a presumption, if a man is married to a woman, he is the father of any child from the marriage. So if you are unsure about who actually fathered the child, a paternity test needs to be performed. But just because the man named on the birth certificate may not have actually fathered the child, most courts will make him still legally responsible for the child's support.
Only if that child has no other biological, blood relatives living at all. And only if that female friend is the God mother of that child, then yes. Other wise, no.
