Why everyone calls him Yachty: Ryan was once running with Lucas Werner, and they were talking about rising hip hop artist Lil' Yachty. At this point, Lil' Yachty was sort of unknown, so Lucas thought it was really cool that Ryan also knew about Lil' Yachty and his music. So Lucas decided to start calling him Yachty, and like many nicknames in this club, it just caught on.
