Do we even know if he's just a member of Yoda's race, something similar or a clone?
Also, Disney is saying they know the name of Baby Yoda but withheld it for suspense purposes. I call BS. Disney had no clue Baby Yoda was going to blow up like this or they would have flooded the Christmas market with Baby Yoda merchandise.

Disney deliberately withheld the merchandising because they didn’t want to ruin the surprise and fight the Twitter Trolls before a single episode even aired.
They knew it would be a smash, which is why Season Two was Greenlit and written long before Season One even aired.
The demand for “Baby Yoda” merchandising isn’t expected to wane because it wasn’t available for Christmas 2019. It’ll be available ahead of Season 2 and will likely be in greater demand during the 2020 Christmas season.
