VALET

What valet means

A person employed to park cars for patrons at a restaurant, hotel, or event, or a male personal servant who attends to someone's clothing and grooming needs.

Where the word comes from

From French valet, originally meaning a young man or servant. The French word comes from Old French valet, a diminutive form of val, derived from Occitan valet.

The term eventually shifted to mean a personal attendant or manservant, particularly one who assists with dressing or grooming.
