[Surname] Bondancer
I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about this surname, including proper pronunciation if possible.

If it's the surname Kieran you're talking about, then It is an Irish surname. You can go here for more of the origin - http://www.ancestry.com/name-origin?surname=Kieran
I do not know the proper pronunciation, but to me it looks like it could be "Key-ren", or "Keer-ren".

I cannot bet on it but it seems to be that the surname means "good dancer" (Bon = Good in many latin languages and "dancer" can mean dancer in at least one latin language; "dancer" in Spanish is "danzarin", "dance" is "danza", and other latin languages have similiar ortography for equivalent words... I bet bon-dancer is pronounced bond-dans-er or bond-dan-ser (where "ser" is pronounced like the "ser" in "serum")
I don't think "Bondancer" is a surname itself. I have not found anyone with this surname, in present time or from past records. There are an extremely few people with the surname Bondance, without the "r". I did find the surname Bundance, perhaps a variant.
