Every year, we have a theme when we name the baby goats born on our farm. Next year, we'd like their names to be the word 'goat' in other languages. The only one I know is 'cabrita' (spanish, possibly wrong). Feel free to include variations such as male, female, little, etc. ALL LANGUAGES WELCOME!!!

Gafr (Welsh).
And as a bonus, here is a link (you'll have to scroll down a bit) to a song which you can sing as you count them. It gives a few variants of colour -- the main song being about a "gafr wen" -- a white goat. http://www.ligtel.com/~wales/MusicLyrics.htm
