It's not the "ee-ar" that's the issue, it's the "cl" It's extremely common in English to move vowels around or add vowels to separate consonant clusters (Yogi Bear's "pic-a-nic baskets", Natasha Lyonne's "cock-a-roach", "jewelry" to "jewlery", "realtor" to "relator")

It's probably especially because there happen to be a lot more words that actually do end in "-cular", like "particular", "molecular", "ocular", "circular"
