Sadly, that's normal to BG modding. You should never update and/or reinstall game mid-run. Strings (in-game text) numeration changes and you end up with gibberish.
There is a chance that you may restore Bristle's soundset and name if I added "something is weird with your voice" option among player-initiated dialogues, but other characters will still have wrongly assigned strings.
Sadly, there may be other problems happening, because state of the world map and areas are also stored in savegsmes and when reinstalling stuff, things can get messed up.
All of this is also why many mods will tell you to start a new game. Otherwise things may turn into a mix of normal and broken stuff, references and text links. It's just how this engine works, let's remember it is a very old one.
Sorry for being the bearer of bad news, but that's the reason behind that rule...
