In Assassin's Creed II, what is the full name of the playable Italian Assassin?

The playable Italian Assassin in Assassin's Creed II is Ezio Auditore da Firenze. He is a Florentine nobleman whose life changes after members of his family are executed as part of a political conspiracy.

The game follows Ezio from his youth in Florence through his training as an Assassin and his pursuit of those responsible. Its historical story moves through important Renaissance locations, including Florence, Venice, Forlì, and Monteriggioni. Ezio works with figures such as Leonardo da Vinci and becomes involved in the wider conflict between the Assassins and Templars.

Ezio's name is often shortened to Ezio Auditore, but “da Firenze” is part of his full character name. He remains the central character of Assassin's Creed II and returns as the protagonist of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Assassin's Creed Revelations.
