I can answer that for you. Ithilion and Ithilien are both made up of two separate words, with the common one being Ithil, and the other being ion and ien respectively. Ion means "Son" and Ien means "Land" (or "Son of" and "Land of"), therefore the similarity. Ithilion Elerúth means Son of the Moon and The Wrath of Stars (or the Wrath of The Stars). If you want to find out more as to the origin of these, I suggest you read his character story, which goes in depth into his many names.
