Longest individual notation?

There is actually a very rare 1/342,000,000,000, yeah, lesser chance than any literal lottery… That is… a double disambiguated bishop checkmate- Which will look like this- Ba8xc6# with 7 characters, has been achieved in 0 real life games… It looks like this- here white plays Ba8xc6# next, making it one of the longest possible moves in chess

I would probably say Qg2xd5# since it is a doubly disambiguated queen capture checkmate and it includes the biggest letters and numbers in the alphabet.
Q, g, d, 5, and 2
example:

Ne3xd5# or doubly disambiguated bishop capture checkmate (Bc6xe4# or Bg8xe6#)

If we're counting less commonly used methods of notation which are still technically following the rules of notation, I propose:

That's the longest one; any three or more pieces could capture a square, with a checkmate.
