Yes, it's a Bangladeshi thing to name their kids with 3 names instead of the usual 2, probably due to past conquests.
Pet name is usually in English, Russell is a pretty common name within BD lol. So it usually work like this:
First Name = Bengali
Last Name = Arabic
Nickname = English(this is the most common name your family and friends will know you by).
