I looked up some online resources today that might come in handy:
Reading the Brothers Karamazov
-This site includes a list of characters with their various names
-Also questions for each of the books, which may be helpful when writing reflections.
-There is a searchable version of the Garnett translation.
-Under "Research" there is also a decent bibliography of online articles.
Cliffs Notes
-Free online.
The Definitive Study Guide
-Features a summary and analysis of each book and sketches of each character.
Brothers Karamazov Concordance
-Off the top of my head, I don't know why this would be useful...but anyway: a concordance for the book.
Spark Notes
-The character list here seems especially useful.
***Based on the Spark Notes list, here are the names and their variants, which may be helpful to print out:
