Ah, hang on. Patty or Selma? It sounds like a disease or syndrome, and "pneumo" implies lung-related. And they're the two heavy smokers.

Montgomery Burns?

(I thought this disease was fictitious, and it was simply fabricated to make a big long word)

Fictitious or not, it's in the dictionary i have in the house.

Here's the list so far...

Montgomery Burns
Groundskeeper Willie
Patty & Selma
Bart Simpson
Jimbo Jones
Waylon Smithers
Lionel Hutz
Homer Simpson
Apu Nassape.....whatever
Lisa Simpson
Dr. Hibbert
Ralph Wiggum
Martin Prince
Professor Frink

All of which are incorrect. This character (male) is in the vast majority of episodes, does not live in the Simpson household, or live next door either (that's the Flanders' out then).

Abe Simpson (Grandpa) ?

Quote from Wikipedia

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (also spelled -koniosis) is, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, "a factitious word alleged to mean 'a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust usually found in volcanos'. It was coined to serve as supposedly the longest English word. The more general and widely used term for this condition is pneumoconiosis, also known as black lung disease.
