The surname of Assassin's Creed III protagonist Connor is Kenway.
Connor is the adopted name of Ratonhnhaké:ton, a member of the Kanien'kehá:ka people. He is the son of Haytham Kenway, a central character whose own perspective opens the game. Connor's birth name reflects his Indigenous heritage, while Kenway connects him to the wider Kenway family introduced in the series.
Assassin's Creed III is set primarily during the American Revolution. Connor becomes involved with figures and events connected to the colonial conflict, including George Washington, the Continental Army, and the struggle between Assassins and Templars. The game also features a substantial frontier environment and naval missions.
Kenway can be confused with Auditore, Ezio's surname, or Frye, the surname of the twin protagonists in Assassin's Creed Syndicate. Edward Kenway, the lead character of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, is another member of the same fictional family.
