In Assassin’s Creed III, what is Connor’s Mohawk birth name?

The story behind the answer

Connor’s Mohawk birth name in Assassin’s Creed III is Ratonhnhaké:ton. He is the son of Haytham Kenway and a Kanien’kehá:ka woman named Kaniehtí:io, and he later adopts the name Connor for easier interaction in colonial society.

The game follows Ratonhnhaké:ton during the American Revolution. His personal story involves protecting his community, confronting the Templars, and joining the Assassin Brotherhood. The use of both names reflects the character’s divided cultural and political world rather than indicating two separate protagonists.

Players sometimes confuse Connor with his father, Haytham Kenway, who is the central character of Assassin’s Creed III’s opening sequence and a Templar leader. Ratonhnhaké:ton is also distinct from Shay Cormac, the protagonist of Assassin’s Creed Rogue.
