According to the US Patent and Trademark Office, Suleman's attorneys filed two applications to trademark her media-given moniker, Octomom, and giving permission "to use my nickname as Trademark or Servicemark."

Nadya Suleman, mama to octuplets and a total of 14 children, has caused quite a bit of hoopla in recent weeks. All the media attention has raised questions as to the sperm donor's identity.
