Name for a young newt

Answer 1

When a newt comes out of the egg, but still stays in the water it is called a larva
Some newts have a terrestrial juvenile stage these are called efts.

Some people just call them "kewt".

Answer 2

Newts love to swim. With that you could name it Swimmy, Swammy, Bubbles, or you could use your imagination. I have three red spotted newts. I named one Pumpkin,one Hony and one Swimmy.
Embryo (egg-stage) and larva (freeswimming stage).

Answer 3

The Old English name of the animal was efte, efeta (of unknown origin), resulting in Middle Englisheft; this word was transformed irregularly into euft, evete, or ewt(e). The initial 'n' was added from the indefinite article 'an' by provection (juncture loss) by the early 15th century.[2]The form 'newt' appears to have arisen as a dialectal variant of eft in Derbyshire and Staffordshire, but entered Standard English by the Early Modern period (used by Shakespeare in Macbethiv.1).[3]

The regular form eft, now only used for newly metamorphosed specimens, survived alongside newt, especially in composition, the larva being called "water-eft" and the mature form "land-eft" well into the 18th century, but use of the simplex "eft" as equivalent to "water-eft" has been in use since at least the 17th century.[4]

Dialectal English and Scots also has the word ask (also awsk, esk in Scots[5]) used for both newts and wall lizards, from Old English āþexe, from Proto-Germanic*agiþahsijǭ, literally "lizard-badger" (compare German Eidechse and Echse; *agi- is ultimately cognate with Greek ὄφις, from Proto-Indo-European . Latin had the name stellio for a type of spotted newt, now used for species of the Stellagama genus. Ancient Greek had the name κορδύλος, presumably for the water newt (immature newt, eft).[7]German hasMolch, from Middle High Germanmol, olm, like the English term of unknown etymology.

Newts are also known as Tritones (viz., named for the mythological Triton) in historical literature, and "triton" remains in use as common name in some Romance languages, in Greek, and in Russian. The systematic name Tritones was introduced alongside Pleurodelinae by Tschudi in 1838, based on the type genus named Triton by Laurenti in 1768. Laurenti's Triton was renamed to Triturus("Triton-tail") by Rafinesque in 1815.[8]Tschudi's Pleurodelinae is based on the type genus Pleurodeles (ribbed newt) named by Michahelles in 1830 (the name meaning "having prominent ribs", formed from πλευρά "ribs" and δῆλος "conspicuous").
