It is probably just a mutt depending on how much you paid for it. There are endless possibilities for a Hybrid like a FH the "different Kinds" are really just selectively bred fish that show certain traits and or colors stronger than others. But I am no expert on hybrids so maybe someone else will know 
Perhaps you don't understand that flowerhorns are hybrids. their names change everyday.
It's not a genetically pure fish, therefore, you can really "identify" it anymore than flowerhorn.
From the looks of it, it's one of the lowest quality "PetsMart" flowerhorn that's available for $9.99.

I got an idea I will name it for you
It will be henceforth known as
"super purple Titanic" Flower horn

It's a zhen zhou or pearl flowerhorn. This is the kind of fish that get the purists panties in a bunch because it looks very similar to a trimac. That is why several posters have refered to your fish as "low grade". Don't worry about it though all that matters is that you like the fish. I'm assuming this is your first FH so some good advice for next time would be to check aquabid and purchase from overseas. They have better quality fish, though they can be more expensive. This way we can gradually phase out the trimac look alikes
