Washington - Ryan Lochte applied to trademark his now-signature catchphrase “Jeah†on August 1, documents from the US Patent and Trademark Office have revealed.
Lochte plans to put “Jeah†on sunglasses, clothing, jewelry, DVDs, key chains, trading cards, calendars, hats, posters, mugs, water bottles, swimsuits, swim goggles and swim caps, ABC News reported.
Lochte said he came up with “Jeah†after hearing the rapper Young Jeezy, who says “Cheah†in a lot of his songs.
The Olympic swimming star said that it means good or happy to him.
