    They had been rumored to be romantically involved since at least August of that year, as Thomas paid tribute to Rumer on her birthday.

    “We were thinking about the name Loretta, and it was a typo,” she told People . “Her dad and I were texting, and he left the ‘R’ out of Loretta, and it was just Louetta.”

    Rumer eventually changed her story, explaining that the name honored the “Die Hard” star , who is battling dementia and aphasia .

    “We wanted to give her options and me and my dad’s favorite singers are Lou = Louie Armstrong, Etta = Etta James, Isley = Isley Brothers,” she shared on her Instagram Story last December.
