Bob Iger, manager of the Walt Disney Company, said so CounterfeitBaby Yoda has a real name, and it's not Baby Yoda, or Baby. And, of course, he doesn't tell.

I mean, right? I got the real name of Baby Yoda – hell, Yoda species name remains a mystery – it's going to be nuclear-grade stuff that the boss man has to get around. If I were Bob Iger, I'd ask for a summary on Baby Yoda, in other words.
Right now, Iger is calling the Baby Yoda Baby Yoda just like the rest of us.

So people will have to wait, which I think is actually a good thing in this case. ”
