In summary

Inherited from Middle French échanson, from Old French eschanson (“officer in charge of serving drinks to the table of a king or a prince, cupbearer”), a borrowing from Frankish *skankijō (“cupbearer”), from Proto-Germanic *skankijaną (“to pour in; serve drinks”), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)keng- (“to limp; be crooked; slant”). Cognate with Old High German scencho (“cupbearer”), Old High German scenken (“to pour in, give drink to, water”), Old English sċenċan (“to skink, pout out, give drink to”). More at skink, shink.
