The well known mother of octuplets, Nadya Suleman applied in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to legally use the word "Octomom." She definitely wants to be called that way. However, it was discovered that a Houston-based novelty company also filed the same proposition a month ago.
Suleman's lawyer Jeff Czech said that Nadya still has the legitimate claim to the trademark. He added, "It's not going to matter because they had no permission from Nadya, who has the rightful claim to the name 'Octomom'."
Although the mother of 14 didn't want to be called "Octomom" in the past, she changed her mind as it can be a source of income for her. "She's never warmed to it, but the idea would be for others to use it for licensing. It's just a smart thing to do," narrated Czech.
The lawyer also revealed that he's currently negotiating with TV producers for a possible Suleman’s reality show.
