Why Doesn't Danticat Give Ka's Father a Name?

Danticat does not give Ka's father a name in order to keep him somewhat of a mystery. Him being called Ka's father, the barber, Anne's husband, or the landlord, are less important than him being The Dew Breaker. When he is called the dew breaker, the readers are constantly reminded of his past. Him not having a name is unimportant because his actions as the dew breaker are whats most important.
