  Bey
During the Ottoman Empire the ruler was called "bey" until 1394, when Bayezid 1 was given the right to call himself "sultan" by the shadow caliph in Cairo.
But the title "bey" didn't dissappear, and came to be used by governors of a province.
The bey was an important figure, often autonomous from the sultans in Istanbul (before 1453 Bursa and Edirne).

  Bey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Henceforth "bey" came to be applied to subordinate officers, such as a military governor (especially sanjakbey, called after a military banner; compare vali) or district commissioner in part of an Ottoman vilayet or province.
Soon the title was devaluated, as Pasha was established as a higher distinction, bey even was used a a courtsey title (alongside Pashazada) for a Paha's son.
The title bey could be maintained as a similar office within Arab states that broke away from the High Porte, such as Khedive Mehmet Ali's Egypt, where it was a rank below Pasha (maintained in two rank classes after 1922), and a title of courtesy for a Pasha's son.

 Police seek motive in Bey killing / Officers say it was attempted carjacking or an assassination
The slaying of Antar Bey, the son and designated heir of the late Black Muslim leader Yusuf Bey, may have been an attempted carjacking or an assassination that stemmed from a power struggle within the religious organization, Oakland police said Wednesday.
Bey, who had at least four children and whose wife is pregnant, recently had expressed concerns that somebody was out to get him, said Oakland attorney Lorna Brown, who had represented Yusuf Bey on criminal sex-abuse charges until his death.
John Bey, another son of Yusuf Bey, was seriously wounded in June when a gunman ambushed him while he was leaving his home in the 1700 block of Indian Way one morning.
