What is the name of the Assassin's Creed III protagonist who becomes known as Connor?

The story behind the answer

Ratonhnhaké:ton is the birth name of the Assassin's Creed III protagonist known as Connor.

He is a Kanien'kehá:ka man from the village of Kanatahséton. After his village is attacked, he seeks guidance from Achilles Davenport and joins the Assassin Brotherhood, adopting the name Connor for easier interaction with colonial society.

The game follows Connor during the American Revolution. Its historical setting includes the Thirteen Colonies and features figures such as George Washington, Samuel Adams, and Charles Lee.

The name Connor is widely used in the game and in franchise marketing, but Ratonhnhaké:ton is the character's original Kanien'kehá:ka name. This distinction makes the answer more specific than simply identifying him as Connor Kenway, a label often used because of his family connection to the Kenways.
