Is the name of the call "The contact call"???

Really none of the above unless you can mimic the contact call of a doe or fawn.
The contact call is a a bleat that starts and then rises and falls in pitch similiar to the Can. The Can is marketed as an estrous doe bleat, I've never, ever read any scientific research saying that is actually the case. It's really nothing more than a contact call, sure it may change in pitch due to anxiousness. Mimic the Contact call and you can have does as well as bucks come to your setup.

This is one of the most common deer calls....in "human" words, it's a lost call, says come here, or where are you....

No, there is no such "made" call. You'll need to mimic it using a tube or can type call. I use my River Valley Game Calls' Deer Flute. I cup my hand around the end of the tube once it's set to doe bleat and make the pitch rise and fall by using air pressure and opening in closing my hand on the end of the tube.

Do you think that the fawn in distress call will still work now in Oct.?

I have used the fawn in distress in the early season and had doe RUN to the bottom of my stand. It is definitely the most productive call I have used.
