The young men accompanying a quinceañera in her court are called chambelanes.
A court of honor commonly accompanies the celebrant during the ceremony, formal entrance, photographs, and choreographed dances. The Spanish term chambelán traditionally refers to a male attendant or escort.
The feminine members of the court are generally called damas, meaning ladies. Padrinos and madrinas are sponsors or adults who help support the celebration, so they are not interchangeable with the young people in the court.
The size and composition of a quinceañera court vary by family, country, budget, and personal preference. Some celebrations include both young men and young women, while others use a smaller court or omit it entirely.
