The usual Spanish masculine counterpart to quinceañera is quinceañero. The term can describe a boy celebrating his fifteenth birthday in a related tradition, although quinceañera remains the much more widely recognized name for the custom.
The masculine form follows Spanish noun patterns: quinceañera is feminine, while quinceañero is masculine. Usage is not perfectly uniform across countries or families, and some communities use broader phrases such as a fifteenth-birthday celebration instead.
A quinceañero celebration may borrow elements associated with quinceañeras, including formal clothing, family presentations, music, and a religious service. It does not have to reproduce every traditional ritual. The difference in terminology should not be confused with the separate question of who accompanies the celebrant at the event.
