Maybe a translation thing? American vs British English?

is wastebin an American English word? because I changed mine from GB English to AC English after having issue with locale setting.

I didn't know Animal Crossing had it's own English version!

I've only used British-English and it's Wastebin for me.

It is not; it's a distinctly British-influenced if not outright British term.

Might it be some version in a formerly British colonised country?

Sometimes they use more archaic expression in English, idk
