I don't think Tolkien ever stated a term for items belonging to the Gondolindrim, so in fact Gondolinian is less correct than simply saying "Gondolindrim Sword" or "Sword of the Gondolindrim". A slight mistake by Mevans, I assume. When deriving words from names of places, there are several ways to change the word, so instead of choosing one of several which might be correct, choose the correct term that almost fits (Gondolindrim) that was used by Tolkien.
