How about errand boys?
A knight errant was basically a knight that did not have a land, so he was "erring" from spot to spot.
An errand boy would be insulting as they would basically be glorified paper boys.
Just... thinking out loud.

What about Lancers? A mercenary troop of four horsemen in Italy was known as a lance. One of the troop would always armored like a knight. Knight Errant provides security for money just like mercenaries have done forever.

If their suits are really militaristic and have gas masks incorporated, some classicalists might call them "Stormtroopers" from a really old flatscreen series...
