It's "itsy bitsy." "Incy wincy" is a relatively rare variation in the U.S.
The original version is "the blooming, bloody spider."
So I just looked into it,
APPARENTLY, the origin is neither Itsy Bitsy or Incy Wincy, it's ACTUALLY...
Blooming. Bloody Spider
No really, here is apparently where the poem sprung from, originally from Camp and Camino in Lower California (1910) known simply as "Spider Song":
Oh, the blooming, bloody spider went up the spider web,
The blooming, bloody rain came down and washed the spider out,
The blooming, bloody sun came out and dried up all the rain,
And the blooming, bloody spider came up the web again.
It originated from America and spread worldwide, and the song changed form. Apparently Itsy Bitsy also predates Incy Wincy.

It's incy wincy in UK
No, we have Incy Wincy in the US and many countries across the world have Itsy Bitsy
Valve are a US based company, therefore they have no authority over the English language. I think we need QEII to settle this one, I'll give her a bell and get back to you.
we'll toss incy wincy and the queen into the boston harbor where they belong
Cookie is a now twisted word for cake, biscuits are biscuits.
."Incy Wincy"? The fuck? Who says that?
Errr...I was taught Itsy Bitsy and I live in the UK...It's incy wincy in UK
Never heard anything but Incy Wincy in the UK.
Never heard anything but Incy Wincy in the UK.
I wont hear any disputes on this.
Incy wincy too here in the UK. Love how random this is lmao.
Also lol at people saying "the fuck is incy wincy". Itsy bitsy also makes zero sense.
Incy wincy. It's a UK thing I guess.
First of all that's not a sausage roll. Second of all those have existed over here forever. We call it pigs in a blanket.Has anyone mentioned that Americans have recently "invented" the sausage roll and call it the "Puff Dog".
First of all that's not a sausage roll. Second of all those have existed over here forever. We call it pigs in a blanket.
Not in the USPigs in blankets are bacon wrapped sausages, mate.
Eensy Weensy - Canada
Not in the US
In the US, pigs in blankets are wrapped in a harder, biscuit like pastry. not a puff pastry. Sausage rolls are sausages in puff pastry.
Incy Wincy.
Not really true, while it is true if someone were to make pigs in a blanket from scratch at home they'd just use whatever dough they could get cheap at the store. Real pigs in a blanket from a restaurant or a store will have puff pastry.
then what the fuck do you call cookie cake get out of here with this nonsense
Errr...I was taught Itsy Bitsy and I live in the UK...
I'm in the UK as well and I've never heard anything but itsy bitsy.
Do you prefer to eat those with a side of freedom fries or liberty cabbage?

Here come the lowest common denominator insults. How nice of you. Shall I insult you based on the worst stereotype of where you are from as well?
What? No, that's a sausage roll. Pig in a blanket is a sausage wrapped in bacon.
Didn't mean to offend or insult - I thought this back-and-forth (in the spirit of the thread) was jovial.
Oh no, don't put Canada on the eensy weensy side, all I heard here was itsy bitsy.
Incy wincy? What the heck is that?
