I wonder if double checkmate is even a correct term, I would just call it checkmate, and add double check for more interesting info, but in the end, it's still just checkmate (i.e. game over)

If we're taking the double checkmate to be what it really is, the correct term is checkmate by double check.

The above game : is it a double checkmate or double check?
What is exact technical word used for the above win?
I stand by my comments here from back then. Double checkmate for me would be two individual checkmates, basically winning two games in a move. I can imagine for example a double checkmate would be possible in 4-way chess. I tend to agree with DifferentialGalois's description above, checkmate by double check or maybe double check checkmate

Beautiful and stunning example of Triple Checkmate with the Rooks battery on the d-file checking the king and talking away all d-file squares , the rook on d8 taking away all back rank squares and the rook on the e-file taking away all e-file squares resulting in 3 checkmates in 1 go or Triple Checkmate

I think Steven is just having some fun with us - if he did that, he belongs in the Chess HOF solely based on that accomplishment
