What do you call it when you fork the king, queen and both rooks?

It's not really useful since your knight can only eat one piece at a time...
A family fork usually isn't any more useful than a royal fork yet they have different names? Thanks for the tactical insight 1700..
True, but it's an exception to the principle per which new names are created only when the difference they allow to designate makes a difference, which is not the case here. My guess is that "family fork" is a kind of joke, it's not meant to be serious. And by the way it was not tactical advice. In any case, well done for this super fork, and your ratings, and knowing all these technical terms! It's amazing at such a young age.
I call it a royal fork but the names of this are just up to you :) at the end of the day it is still just a fork
#18 You will lose. This one is called epic fail fork. White should just resign as soon as possible.
