There is no specific term for a baby echidna.
There are some reports that they are called puggles. This is incorrect.
The term "puggle" developed as a name for baby echidnas, as they resembled "Puggles", an American soft-toy character. The company producing the "Puggles" toy considered legal action against the unauthorised use of the term "puggles". Whether or not this action went ahead is undetermined, but it could quite possibly be illegal to use the word for anything other than the soft toy.

The echidna's spikes are called spines. These spines are primarily for defence against predators. When threatened by danger, the echidna will rapidly burrow horizontally into the soil, leaving only its spines exposed as it digs, and thereby protecting its vulnerable underbelly. The echidna can also raise its spines to create a more formidable protection against being bitten by predators. They also serve the function of enabling the echidna to wedge itself into small spaces, such as between rocks or tree roots.

They are the platypus and short-beaked echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) of Australia, and the long-beaked echidna (Zaglosssus bruijni) of Papua New Guinea.
