Siom use to be Siomians. Must have changed after Richard left.

You forgot about DoUrden = DoUrden.

Suggestions:

Kwor - Kworese
Karnon - Karnonian
Drojf - Drojvian
Seatown - Seatowner
Krif - Kriffian
Blojt - Blojtese
Pok - Pokker
Mirovash - Mirovi

How about places where the main settlement is not in the "town" named location, like Karnon Forest vs. Karnon?

And you forgot Naron.

Naron = Naronians.

Naronians and Ladvicians use to fight back in the old days and there was much racial hatred towards each other. Emperor Agop Pasdfui changed that when he was ruler of the Alexian Empire by changing the name to Alexian from The Empire of Ladvicitavoi. As well as he spent most of his time building up Naron.

I already called them that. I know that the people in Pak had been called the Pakians once, but they prefered something else.
When people tell me that great minds think alike, all I can do is look at them and think "oh you dirty, dirty bastard"

I doubt the residents for Plaekur care what you call them, bearing in mind how amazingly active they were when I've been there.

But why not Plaekurites, for a bit of variety?

For Quillanoi: how'bout Quillanois? (pronounced "Quilla-NWA", same in singular and plural). That sounds French and more educated than "Quillanoisian".

For Drojf I tend to use Drojflings, and Drojfian as an adjective like in a Drojfian trader
