Bernard also appears in Maniac Mansion by the way (at least I think he is the same Bernard as the one from Day of the Tentacle).

It is. in DOTT, there are references to his involvement in the events of MM.
(Incidentally, none of it revolves around stuff that only he could do, but it's still attributed to him anyway)

I can't remember if that was her name in the game, did the characters addressed her like that?

I updated the post guys, thanks for the help, just missing the following letters:

Q, U, X, Y

Any ideas?

My Sam & Max manual credits Tony Pope as the voice of "Uri Psychic Tool Bender", but I don't remember seeing the name within the game itself. If last names count, there's Dr. Hans Ubermann from Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis.

Bad thing is that those characters are not from the pixel games, those are from the new games...

Madame Xima was in The Curse of Monkey Island, though.

Quiet Patron was in The Curse of Monkey Island, too:

The pic is from a youtube video, so not that good quality. He's the skeleton on the lower right (advertising Grim Fandango)

I'm would like to avoid The Curse of Monkey Island on this if possible, since it doesn't follow the same graphics as all the others, the improvement is amazing coming from the previous games...

So, bad thing is that I'm still missing characters for this letters:

Q, U, X, Y

Trying to avoid The Curse of Monkey Island, any ideas?

Thanks,

Javier

It's not unlikely that there simply are no characters in those games starting with these letter. Names starting with Q, X, and Y are very rate to start with.

I recommend that you do some work yourself and search the internet. I am sure you can find lists with all characters in each relevant LEC game if you search a bit. That would then give you the definite answer.

Yes, that was the first thing I did and then I required some help, thanks...
