From Wikipedia:
An equerry (/ɪˈkwɛri/ or /ˈɛkwəri/; from French écurie 'stable', and related to écuyer 'squire') is an officer of honour.

In contemporary use, it is a personal attendant, usually upon a sovereign, a member of a royal family, or a national representative. The role is equivalent to an aide-de-camp, but the term is now prevalent only in the Commonwealth of Nations.
