It is also a term used for Dugganna Nilame of Kandyan era kings.Appuhamy served as an honorific title during the period of the Sinhalese kingdom, similar to titles such as Rala, Nilame, and Banda. It was sometimes used interchangeably with Rala and Nilame. During the reign of King Rajasingha II, the title Appuhamy was used for district governors. The Mahadisawa of Satkorale at the time was referred to as Tennakoon Appuhamy.
