Morphology

ballooner = balloon (transparent) = balloon + er

The word is transparently formed from 'balloon' + '-er' to mean a person who makes or supplies balloons.

Etymology

Ballooner comes from balloon meaning 'large ball' and the ending -er meaning 'a person who does something', so a ballooner can be a maker or supplier who makes and sells many air-filled 'balls' for parties and decorations.
