Dutch.
Called it New Amsterdam, but came under English command after the peace negotiations of Westminster in 1674. The English paid 2 million Guilders, which was an awe full lot back then, to buy of further aggression from the Dutch. In some sort of revenge, The Dutch took Suriname, and the English and the Dutch settled. New Amsterdam became New York. The Dutch would leave them alone. Fun fact, in the negotiations of Westminster, England wanted the right, to be greeted first by Dutch Naval ships. That right was granted, so when in contact with other ships, the dutch were ought to greet the English first, by law.
