Goby Cheat Help
Goby cannot be spawned by naming an animal or your character. The naming cheat only reads plain numeric item codes, and this item's code is [Goby] — inside a name the game ignores it completely, with no error and no item.
Spawn Using the Chat Cheat
Enable chat cheats on your save to get Goby, then open the in-game chat. That unlocks the /debug commands built into Stardew Valley 1.6.9 — no mods required.
Run /debug iq ALL_ITEMS (O) to open the item browser for this type, then left-click Goby to drop it straight into your backpack.
