Ohh, I forgot to clarify this for you as I know it can be confusing.

So officially, the Assassins' organization is named the Assassin Brotherhood. It is alternatively named the Assassin Order, but that name is mostly attested in earlier sources, newer sources prefer Assassin Brotherhood.

The Assassin Brotherhood until the modern times was divided into many regional branches, each led by a Mentor. These branches, called Guilds, also have the name "Brotherhood" in their official names (e.g. Ottoman Brotherhood, Italian Brotherhood, Chinese Brotherhood, Babylonian Brotherhood, etc.) even though they are all subdivisions of the overall Assassin Brotherhood.
