My theory is that the Author gave this character a purposfully ambigous and non-existant name in order to make the character even more interesting. Any one else have any other thoughts?

I believe that Anton represents a natural force that has come to rid society of the past and auger in a new, much more dangerous world. This is reflected in comments by Ed Tom Bell, when he refers to 'the crime you see now, its hard to even take its measure.' Anton is presented as not having a past, a home country, or an origin. Thus, he is not so much a character, rather a force.
