"Overload" is something you do to function names, not classes.
Do you mean "is it possible to inherit from std::string?"

It is often better to implement such functions as normal functions
which operate on std::string arguments:

void my_function(std::string& s);

You can not have member functions with same name with class, class
name is reserved for constructors. Do you have a dictionary? Search
some other word with same or close meaning from it like 'text'.

making functions which acts on string class with make the design
brittle.please suggest me.

You've got it backwards. Inheriting from string is more brittle.
Using the defined
public interface to string is much more robust.
