He is originally from Austin, Texas.<ref name=insidetv /> Lucas has good manners and common sense. He considers Farkle to be his best friend.

However, she works as a waitress at the Nighthawk Diner. Katy frequently fails to show up to any event of importance to Maya, believing herself to be a hindrance to her daughter's future. Her relationship with Maya is reminiscent to that of Shawn and Chet Hunter from ''Boy Meets World''. | |||
| * Ava (Ava Kolker) – Auggie's six-year-old, manipulative girlfriend. She convinces Auggie to do whatever she asks because she is older. However, Ava is ultimately oblivious to how this affects Auggie. Topanga makes it clear that she does not like Ava. | |||

| ===''Boy Meets World'' alumni=== | |||
| The following characters from '']'' made reappearances in this series, either in recurring roles, guest appearances, or cameo appearances where they appear in order of appearance: | |||
| * ] (]) – Cory's omnipresent mentor who is now in his 80s. Feeny makes a cameo appearance in the pilot episode, his only appearance in the first season.<ref>Greene, Andy (June 27, 2014). . ''Rolling Stone''. Retrieved June 27, 2014.</ref> Mr. Feeny was Cory, Shawn, and Topanga's teacher in junior high, their principal in high school, and their professor in college. Throughout these years, Feeny was the Matthews' next-door neighbor and a close friend to the Matthews family as well as Shawn Hunter. In "Girl Meets Gravity", Cory calls Feeny to check up on him after the death of Mrs. Svorski. In "Girl Meets Pluto", Cory, Shawn, and Topanga (along with Riley and Maya) return to Philadelphia to dig up a time capsule from Feeny's backyard where they are caught by Feeny. When Riley and Maya are asked if Cory was a good teacher, Maya replied "The best. But he says you're the best." | |||
| * ] (]) – Cory, Topanga, and Shawn's former classmate, appearing as a main cast member in the first season of ''Boy Meets World'', and later the fifth season as a guest star. Although Cory and Shawn often bullied Minkus, the boys also looked to him for advice on girls and life, and Stuart was good friends with Topanga (later becoming a fierce rival, which carries over to this series). Stuart is Farkle's father, as seen in "Girl Meets Maya's Mother." He appears at Farkle's career day at school, whereupon he instantly renews his rivalry with both Cory and Topanga, and is proud to mention his position as the CEO of Minkus International. | |||
| * ] (]) – Cory's good friend, and former high school bully. In ''Boy Meets World'', Harley was much older than the rest of the students, due to being held back. He now works as the janitor at John Quincy Adams Middle School as seen in "Girl Meets the Forgotten". He mentions in "Girl Meets Flaws" that Cory helped him get the job. Reminiscent of the original series, Harley likes to address Cory by the nickname "Johnny Baboon" (or simply, 'Baboon'). Harley is regretful for his past behavior and looks to steer kids from going down the wrong path. | |||
| * ] (]) – Cory's best friend since childhood, Topanga's close childhood friend, and uncle figure to Riley and Auggie. Since the end of ''Boy Meets World'', Shawn has traveled around as a writer and a photographer. He also forms a friendship with Maya. Cory and Shawn have a close relationship with each other that, as shown in ''Boy Meets World'', is at times even stronger than the relationship between Cory and Topanga. | |||
| * ] (]) – Cory's father, Topanga's father-in-law, and grandfather to their children. Alan has a close relationship with his son and owns a wilderness store which he originally ran with his eldest son ] in ''Boy Meets World''. | |||
| * ] (]) – Cory's mother, Topanga's mother-in-law, and grandmother to their children. Amy has a close relationship with her children, especially ], who is her only daughter. She often would disagree with Cory and Topanga as a couple when they made important decisions even though she is fond of them. | |||
| * ] (]) – Joshua is Cory's teenage brother and Auggie and Riley's uncle. He was born premature, and underweight, and almost died just hours after his birth. Joshua was the only member of the Matthews family to never have a prominent role and he was originally portrayed by creator ]'s son Daniel Jacobs in ''Boy Meets World''. Joshua is now 17 years old and still lives in Philadelphia with Cory's parents.<ref>{{cite web|last=Hibberd|first=James|url=http://www.ew.com/article/2014/05/22/girl-meets-world-joshua-uriah-shelton|title='Girl Meets World' casts Cory's brother Joshua | Inside TV | EW.com|publisher=Insidetv.ew.com|date=May 22, 2014|accessdate=June 19, 2014}}</ref> Maya has a major crush on him. | |||
| * ] (]) – Eric is Cory and Josh's older brother and Auggie and Riley's uncle. Like in the original series, Eric is a goofball and lovable but is quite dimwitted sometimes. Now a full-grown adult, he appears to have matured a bit but still considered to be the fun uncle in the Matthews family. As evidenced in the original series, Eric has good people skills. Since leaving Philadelphia, Eric has gone on to become the mayor of St. Upid Town, New York (a fictional community near the borders of New York State and the Canadian Province of ]). To blend in with the locals, he wears a ] costume (a homage to his faux alter ego "Plays With Squirrels" that was seen in the ''Boy Meets World'' season 7 episode "Seven the Hard Way"). A running gag is that he tends to mispronounce Maya's name. | |||
