In Australia, a New Zealander is commonly known as a Kiw (Because of some bird I think)i. Do Australians have a nickname?

Hi, thanks for the welcome
Oh yes, we're called kiwis here too. Well, we generally call you Aussies, except for one random sports commentator who calls you guys kangaroos. For some odd reason that one didn't really catch on haha.

Kangaroos. Mifght have been the name of the team. I don't know, don't really like sports that much. Hockey and basketball are OK
Once I become slightly more known I will create a group that's for people from the southern hemisphere. That's pretty much no one T_T

spell it the weirdest way you can think of, then your certainly going to get it right.
Wallabies, kangaroos, about the same thing.
