"But there is a difference, because in English, Mr. and Ms. are used with the lastnames while in Turkish, Bey is used with the firstname. The Modern Turkish words "Bay" and "Bayan" (not to be confused with the same Old Turkic words meaning "Rich") are the exact equivalents of English "Mr." and "Ms.".
