What do you call a person from...

New Zealand? People from America are Americans, those from Ireland are Irish, but what is the term for the citizens of New Zealand. New Zealanders? I know there are some people from Australia on this board, so maybe they might know? Any help is appreciated.

The girl that writes in this LiveJournal I frequently read(http://livejournal.com/~airandangels) is from New Zealand. She also runs a website, http://www.airandangels.com. She seems pretty nice, and very intelligent; she might answer any New Zealander questions you have (other than this one, which the others seem to have covered).
