Sanskrit Translation of names-confirmation

sanskrit translation:

I had 2 names translated on a free board and received 3 varieties in translation. I saw your translations here and wanted your help.

They are two names:

Frances (pronounced like the country "france" then letter "s"
and Rokay -(pronounced like "row" in the word "rowboat" and the letter long "k" sound.
Kinda like putting putting an "r" in front of "okay".

Can you please help?

Thanks

Here is Frances. Now you could have a few options writing the "Fran" part but the "ces" part remains the same. But this is pretty accurate

Rokay

thanks Supriya,

No it is not the difference in the font.As I mentioned you could write the "fran" part in different ways with the same pronounciation. "Fran" in your translation is:
Name:  fran.jpg
Views: 20
Size:  2.6 KB

in mine it is
Name:  fran1.jpg
Views: 21
Size:  5.3 KB


Now the "ces" part. In your translation it is

Name:  ces.jpg
Views: 20
Size:  3.0 KB

Pronounced "says" Hence the pronounciation becomes "Fran - says"

My translation for "ces" is
Name:  cis.jpg
Views: 20
Size:  7.0 KB
pronounced "sis". Hence "Fran-sis"

You may use your translation if yu want it pronounced "FRAN-SAYS" OR go with my translation if you want "FRAN-SIS"

But the Rokay in your translation:

Name:  rok.jpg
Views: 20
Size:  3.3 KB
Pronounced "ROK". This is incorrect and you should go with mine.
