/ˌbɒn əˈmi/

noun

1 good nature. 2 pleasant and easy manner.

Colette, owner of the old brick diner down on the corner of someplace or other, always exuded good humor and bonhomie. It was her signature, and the main reason her customers kept coming back. But that did not stop Aaron from telling her to fuck off. He was trying to ease into a break up with his girlfriend, and Colette kept interrupting to refill their drinks.
