What is a baby goat called?

A goat’s young is called a kid. In farming and animal terminology, “kid” is the standard name for a baby goat, regardless of gender. The other terms refer to different animals: “calf” is for young cattle (and some other species), “lamb” for young sheep, and “pup” for young dogs. So kid is the correct term because it specifically designates a newborn goat.
