Are you looking for a term other than Esquire?

Hello again,

Without a response to the clarification I can not continue to research
this question. Please respond as soon as possible so that I can
continue to search with   the information you provide me.

I just want to point out that females are not disadvantaged in this
regard, "highly accomplished" males are in the same position.
Any title or initials after a person's name should be earned or
awarded by an appropriate organization: university, professional
association, government, religious organization.  Self-promotion won't
gain respect.
Earn an academic degree; become an associate or member of a respected
professional organization (e.g., the bar = esquire); get someone to
recommend you for a national order (won't often be awarded, however),
join a religious order.

Or console yourself with the knowledge that in England flaunting
titles is looked at askance:  the individual  - his or her name -  is
identification enough; those who care will know about the high
accomplishments.
