:::''Geminio'' is an incantation that appears in DH. The incantation for the Doubling Charm/Gemino Curse isn't given in DH or Wonderbook. Thus, it's reasonable to conclude ''Geminio'' is the incantation for the Doubling Charm/Gemino Curse, but since we don't have proof to confirm such a connection, it remains speculation.

::::Not to be rude, but isn't speculation allowed if there's proof to support it?

Are sure that this is the same spell that was used by Hermione to create a duplicate of Slytherin's Locket (which isn't even mentioned in the article)? Hermione's ''Geminio ''a single copy of the object; the Gemino curse of the Lestrange vault caused the object to multiply repeatedly when touched. Does anyone think we should have two separate articles, one for ''Geminio'' and one for the Gemino Curse?

Caps

Isn't "Gemino and Flagrante Curses" capitalised in the book? I don't have a copy of Deathly Hallows that I can check at the moment, but all its mentions on the Internet have it capitalised just like every other spell. --  Seth Cooper  owl post! 00:31, August 10, 2011 (UTC)

It was seth. It's that JSquish has been changing names of pages.

Doubling Charm

Are we sure that this Gemino Curse is the Doubling Charm and not Geminio? I think it's more likely that Geminio is the Doubling Charm, but not having Wonderbook myself I cannot verify. --Hunniebunn (talk) 15:58, November 16, 2012 (UTC)

It's referred to as the Gemino Curse in the game. I went back and checked just to make sure the notes I'd taken when playing the first time around weren't in error (I also played with subtitles, so I know I wasn't mishearing Geminio). I imagine that the reference to items multiplying indefinitely was a deliberate nod to the Lestrange Vault incident. Starstuff (Owl me!) 16:48, November 16, 2012 (UTC)
Okay, thanks. So now I wonder whether they're actually the same... a few years ago some people suggested it, before this came up. First off, their names are almost too similar... Gemino is Geminio without the 'i'. Second, the fact that this is called the Duplicating Charm, and the Geminio page says it's a charm. Thirdly, because both the Geminio and Gemino spells are introduced in the seventh book. So, whaddaya think? --Hunniebunn (talk) 17:02, November 16, 2012 (UTC)
