Nappy :D
It's called a Nappy here in Australia. It is also referred to as a Nappy in the U.K. The term diaper refers to the pattern of cloth that was used in the 16th century for swaddling cloth in the UK. As the use of the diaper pattern for swaddling spread, the term diaper stuck in place of swaddling cloth. The U.S. and Canada continued using the term diaper while in the U.K. ( and Australia ) replaced the term with 'nappy.'
They are the exact same thing, nappy is just the United Kingdom, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand term for them and diaper is the American term for them.
