This begum name , usually Bangoli girls have it with their names, most of them have begum as a sirname.

Jayba Begum
Shamima Begum
Falan Begum

This is mostly a Sylheti Bengali thing in the UK.. ‘Khanom’ is another popular one but outside their particular community it’s far less common nowadays.. My Mum’s family’s from Dhaka and none of my female cousins or friends use those anymore.. ‘Begum’ was traditionally used in front of a name by Turks.. don’t know how it ended up being tacked onto the wrong end lol..
