The name is taken from the kiwi birds native to New Zealand, one of the places where kiwifruit are grown. The name also suggests an appearance similar to those birds. The other name for the brown, furry, egg-shaped fruit is "Chinese gooseberry". This was not as popular in marketing but does correctly identify China as another of the Southeast Asia locations where they are grown.
