Kiwi is a friendly nickname for a New Zealander.
This is WRONG:
" Kiwi's are usually a tough and hard sort of people and are gangsta, especially coming from west, east or south Auckland." That is not true. Anyone born in New Zealnd is considerd a Kiwi, which is NOT a abusive term nor is it limited to pakehas (non maori New Zealander) a Kiwi is a New Zealander.
This is coming from a Kiwi so anyone who says Kiwi is a abusive term or only for "gangsta" maoris then they are sooo wrong!!

originates from the kiwi bird.
People who live in New Zealand, the country right next to (or pretty close to) Australia. Not an offensive term, but can be offensive if it has a nasty word before or after it. A Kiwi is usually a good bloke, and has a big rivalry to Australia when it comes to sport. You'd offend a New Zealander by calling him an Aussie, but they don't hate each other that much (i'd hope), and would stick up for each other if it came to arguements with America, for example. Do not shag sheep.

'Oh, here comes another Kiwi, hide your sheep'
