"The standard bible on punctuation is "You have a point there" by Eric Partridge (Hamish Hamilton, 1953). On page 156 he describes the 8 situations where the apostrophe is used to indicate a plural. "Three Louis's" is one of them."

The problem with "Louises" is that it could also be the plural of "Louise." Ambiguity and such.
