What name is used for Connor, the protagonist of Assassin's Creed III, in his Mohawk language?

The story behind the answer

Ratonhnhaké:ton is the Mohawk name of Connor, the protagonist of Assassin's Creed III.

Connor is the name commonly used for the character after he joins the Assassin Brotherhood, while Ratonhnhaké:ton is his birth name. He is born to Kaniehtí:io, a Kanien'kehá:ka woman, and Haytham Kenway, an English Templar. The character's divided heritage is important to the game's story.

Assassin's Creed III follows Connor during the American Revolution. He becomes involved with figures including George Washington and works against Templar plans in the colonies. The game depicts locations such as Boston, New York, and the American frontier.

Ratonhnhaké:ton is sometimes written with different punctuation or omitted diacritics in informal references. Connor is not his birth name, but the English name he adopts for broader use during the game.
