Baby names for animals are especially used for those that have been in domestic use for ages already.

The less an animal is for domestic use, the less supposable is a name for its baby animal, though older names that have been in existance already were taken for other animals, too.

But generally speaking, they are called 'ducklings'.

Best wishes, Clive
