What are some theorems with very long names?

Question

I just found this theorem: The de Moivre-Laplace-Lindeberg-Feller-Wiener-Lévy-Doob-Erdös-Kac-Donsker-Prokhorov theorem in "Radically Elementary Probability Theory" by Edward Nelson.

I do not know if this is the standard name for this theorem, it might just be called the generalized de Moivre-Laplace theorem. A more well known one (at least with a Wikipage) could be the de Bruijn-Ehrenfest–Smith–Tutte (BEST) theorem.

Nevertheless, that kept me wondering, what are some theorems with very long names? (Name of the theorem, not of the family names)

Poincare-Birkhoff-Witt and the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula come to mind: Both are long enough that they are often referred to by acronyms PBW and BCH, respectively. — Torsten Schoeneberg

Sometimes such names happen when someone falls into the trap of thinking that theorem names are supposed to be correlated to their discoverers. (They usually aren’t.) Then you get things like “DeMillo–Lipton–Schwartz–Zippel lemma” instead of the common name “Schwartz–Zippel lemma”. — Emil Jeřábek

The Cauchy–Schwarz inequality is also called the Cauchy–Bunyakovsky–Schwarz inequality — J. W. Tanner

Matiyasevich-Robinson-David-Putnam theorem? Kreisel-Lacombe-Shoenfield-Tseitin theorem? Albert–Brauer–Hasse–Noether theorem? Grothendieck–Hirzebruch–Riemann–Roch theorem? — Jean Abou Samra

I'm still not clear on what the metric is here. If I just go through en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_theorems looking for the "longest" names, I get the Structure theorem for finitely generated modules over a principal ideal domain, but I doubt that's what you're looking for. — Torsten Schoeneberg
