Try:

... setTitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ You're Up!", nextplayerName] ...

to create a string from your desired content using a format specification.

Alternatively, append the strings together:

NSString *title = [nextplayerName stringByAppendingString:@" You're Up!"];
... setTitle:title ...

Better, support localisation:

... setTitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:NSLocalizedString(@"%@ You're Up!", @"Batter up!"), nextplayerName] ...
