Is the female form of Actinidia commonly know as the Kiwi fruit or Chinese gooseberry?


On plant Actinidia kolomikta

I lived in New Zealand for a couple of years, and it was Chinese gooseberry. In many books and recipes, it is Kiwi. "The Weakest Link" has referred to it as Chinese Gooseberry. So both are correct as it is a colloquialism.
