Help[Opinions] Re: Ender
in reply to a message by mirfak
Perhaps Minecraft has something to do with the name's present use, but that game was only released in 2011 so it couldn't have influenced the use of the name Ender before then, and certainly not Card's choice of name for the character.

Yeah, I don't know about Card's choice. I just meant it seemed congruent to me, referring to end-game. It never occurred to me when I read the book, to think that it referred to obliterating a species. "Ender" seems too blithe for that. But I guess I wouldn't put it past Card.
Has he said in interviews that he chose the name to allude to "ending" the enemy species, do you know?
