[Lasa] Ecuadorian vs. Ecuadorean

[Linda Hall]

Mark,

The etymology seems to originate as a change embraced by publishers that
was embraced by authors - for ex., here's an AP 2019 change:

Nations and Borders

In addition to terms and style choices, AP style covers the correct
references to nations around the world. As nations and borders change, so
does AP style. In the 2019 edition, the following changes have been
incorporated:

   - Macao (formerly Macau)
   - Ecuadorian (formerly Ecuadorean)
   - North Macedonia (formerly Macedonia)

The same is true of the National Geographic:

Hope this helps.
