The answer
GROOM
What groom means
A person who is getting married, or a man employed to take care of horses and their stables.
Where the word comes from
From Old English *groma*, likely related to Old Norse *gromr* (man, fellow), though the precise origin remains uncertain. By medieval times it meant a male servant or attendant, particularly one who looked after horses. The sense of a bridegroom—a man about to be married—developed from the application of the title to a young man of status. The verb "to groom" (to prepare or clean) emerged later from the noun, originally describing the care of horses.
