Frantsiska
Or, probably Frantsiska. I couldn't actually find Francesca (or Frances, or Francisca) in Russian, but I did find the Russian form of Francis, which is Frantsisk.
In Cyrillic Frantsiska would be Ôðàíöèñêa. Frantsisk would, of course, be just Ôðàíöèñê.
EDIT: Hm, the Cyrillic isn't showing up for me on the board, and I don't know why since it showed up fine while I was composing the post.
If you can't see the Cyrillic, go here for the Russian Wikipedia's article on François I of France as an example: http://snipurl.com/me8h.

Thank you for the response! I think it answers the question that Cheska is more than likely not a nn for the Russian form of Francesca, Frantsiska :) I hope that helps Lisette too...
