- “Mommy.”
- ―Poonam's first word[src]
Poonam Nahasapeemapetilon is one of The Nahasapeemapetilon Octuplets. She is one of the daughters of Apu and Manjula.
History[]
She, along with the rest of the octuplets are a result of fertility drugs taken by Manjula, after she and Apu decided that they wanted a baby. However, Apu and Manjula swiftly find they are not up to the task of raising eight kids all at once. After talking with Larry Kidkill, the octuplets are put in a nursery at the Springfield City Zoo, where they are put on display in a show named "Octopia", several times a day. After Apu and Manjula are displeased by this, he and Homer decide to break the children out of the zoo.
Individual Activity[]
While the octuplets are usually shown as a group, each of them can occasionally be seen involved in doing things apart from the rest of the octuplets. Some of Poonam's activities consist of:
- Eight Misbehavin': Being washed by Manjula at the zoo and starring as Dazzle in "Octopia".
- The Sweetest Apu: Running on top of a hotdog warmer and stepping on the condiment dispensers with Nabendu at the Kwik-E-Mart.
- Bart-Mangled Banner: Strangling Anoop with a licorice stick and crawling under Marge Simpson's legs.

Trivia[]
- Poonam's first word was "mommy"[2].
- When Poonam was a star in the show, "Octopia" at the Springfield City Zoo, she was known as "Dazzle"[3], who is dressed as a cabaret girl and sits in a small crib that rocked a little to simulate dancing. Apparently, she wasn't too popular among the audience, based on reviews.
- When Springfield changes its name to "Libertyville" to be patriotic after it is claimed that they hate America, Apu briefly changes Poonam's name to Apple Pie McGillicutty[4].
