The article should be renamed. This is not like tech/ukemi, because one is a technical detail that casual players don't pay attention too, and the other is a heavily publicized fact of newcomer reveals in ''Ultimate'' so far. Going forward, people new to Smash who get involved are not going to know what clones are, only echoes. Watch YouTube videos and read Twitter posts; you'll see that casual Smash fans are familiarized with the concept of an echo, and even professional Smashers are using that term when discussing the game now. In a few months when the game comes out, this wiki will be the only place left using the old unofficial term, unless we change things.

The only plausible argument for not renaming it would be because the term primarily applies only to one out of 5 Smash games (though it really applies to Smash 4, too), but even then, Echo Fighter should get its own article and clone should be a separate article that's primarily Melee-focused.
