What Spanish term commonly names a quinceañera’s male attendants?

Chambelanes is the Spanish term commonly used for a quinceañera’s male attendants.

A quinceañera may have a court of honor made up of friends or relatives who accompany her during the celebration. Male members of that court are often called chambelanes, while female members are commonly called damas. Regional vocabulary and spelling can vary, and some families use different titles or no court at all.

Chambelanes frequently participate in rehearsed entrances, choreographed dances, and the formal waltz associated with the reception. Their role is ceremonial and social rather than an official religious office. The number of attendants is determined by the family and may range from a small group to a larger court.

Padrinos are sponsors or godparents, not simply another word for male attendants. Mariachis are musicians, and damas ordinarily refers to female attendants, making those terms different roles.
