The name 'kiwi' comes from the little flightless bird of New
Zealand. Maori people have always held this bird in high regard. Their feathers
were used to make 'Kahu kiwi', valuable cloaks worn by tribal chiefs. During
the early 1900s, cartoonists started to use the images of the kiwi bird to
represent New Zealand as a country. Eventually, the term Kiwi was attributed to
all New Zealanders. Above information clears that The New Zealanders are

obviously.
