Prodancha ( _bg. Проданча) is a small village in Tran municipality, Pernik Province. It is located in western Bulgaria, 67 km from the capital city of Sofia. The village's name was first attested in 1447 as "Prodancha"; 15th–17th century sources also hint at the variants "Prodankovitsa" and "Prodantsi". The name stems from the personal name "Prodan", its affectionate derivative "Prodancho" or its derivative adjective "Prodancha" in an accusative–genitive form.
