Etymology
The word kiwifruit comes from New Zealand and was named after the small brown bird kiwi because the fruit's brown, fuzzy skin looks like the bird's feathers. It was once sold under the name 'Chinese gooseberry'. So, kiwifruit is the name for the small, oval fruit with brown fuzzy skin and bright green flesh.
