Its for the adjective - autumnal - not pronounced when not an adjective. The other seasons have Springlike, Summery, Wintry. Why not an N?

I've never in my life heard Autumnal and I'm sad that Springlike isn't Springy.

Vernal - Spring
Γ†stival - Summer
Autumnal - Autumn

What do the Americans say? Fally? Fallish? Fallesque?

No idea. Fallen? That would be cool.
