A lot of us don't havbe the actual puzzles, so you have to give us known letters and blanks. One possible answer in the absence of further knowledge is Antipodes

It has 9 letters. Technically, antipodes are the points diametrically opposite from a given point on the globe, so wherever you are is antipodal to somewhere else. However, probably because Aus and NZ were so far away from most of their settlers, on the far side of the world, that's probably why they took on the nickname.
