What is the full name of the protagonist known as Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag?

The protagonist known as Edward Kenway in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is Edward James Kenway.

Edward is a Welsh privateer who becomes a pirate during the early eighteenth century. His pursuit of wealth and status draws him into the conflict surrounding the Assassins and Templars, eventually making him the captain of the ship Jackdaw.

Black Flag is set largely in the Caribbean during the Golden Age of Piracy. Edward encounters historical pirates including Blackbeard, Calico Jack, Anne Bonny, and Mary Read. The game combines naval exploration, ship combat, island travel, stealth missions, and an Abstergo-era framing story.

Edward is also the father of Haytham Kenway and the grandfather of Ratonhnhaké:ton, the protagonist of Assassin’s Creed III. This makes him part of a multigenerational family central to the series. The middle name James distinguishes him from other fictional characters named Edward Kenway.
