Priyanka Chopra Jonas is sharing the adorable name her daughter has coined for her dad Nick Jonas’ boy band.

Chopra Jonas appeared on the Thursday, June 19 episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to promote her upcoming Prime Video film Heads of State. While there, the actress, 42, shared the adorable way her daughter Malti, 3, identifies her dad and uncles’ (Kevin and Joe Jonas) band, the Jonas Brothers.

“[Bruno Mars and Rosé’s] ‘APT’ is her favorite song, by the way,” she told host Jimmy Fallon, after admitting her daughter has diverse taste in music. When the late night host asked if she listens to any Jonas Brothers’ songs, Chopra Jonas shared, “I mean she doesn’t identify them, but she calls them the Donut Brothers.”

The musician, 32, and the actress welcomed their first child together via surrogate on Jan. 15, 2022. During a 2023 interview with Elle, Chopra Jonas told the outlet that Malti has her “wrapped around her finger.”

“I don’t even know how I’ll ever discipline her because I just don’t have it in me,” she said. “I was so close to losing her so many times that she can get away with anything, and I just want to see her happy.”

In October 2023, Chopra Jonas spoke with PEOPLE about the “extremely overwhelming” reality of being a mom.

“Every single day you worry about what you can do wrong and what mistake you might make,” she shared. “I look at [my daughter’s] smile, and I’m like, ‘Okay, okay. I’m doing good so far.’ It’s the greatest thing I’ve ever done, but it’s extremely scary.”

On Thursday, May 15, the Jonas member opened up about his daughter’s “intense” toddler schedule on Live with Kelly and Mark. At the time, the singer revealed that Malti has taken an interest in karate, but there’s one activity she vetoed.

“She’s in nursery school here in New York. She’s got her little friend group, and it’s wild. We also put her in a bunch of classes,” he shared. “These toddler schedules are like way more intense than my schedule.”

“We tried soccer — did not like that,” he said, jokingly apologizing to co-host Mark Consuelos. “But karate, she’s really taken to karate. It’s basically they get in their karate outfits and they just say, ‘hi-ya,’ and they just do that.”

“But she’s loving that, and its amazing to just have that sort of stability and friendship and all those things that, I don’t know, perhaps, I took for granted in the past,” he concluded.
