Ryanair is also one of a small number of airlines is mix up the letters & numbers, for example RYR8KG3 (which is LEAL - EGSS)

Most airlines when using alphanumeric callsigns tend to have the numbers first which are then followed by the letters, I guess the above version makes the callsign much more unique & less likely to cause any confusion.
