There’s a Moscow(pronounced moss-cow), TN and another Canton in Mississippi(pronounced liked the one in ohio).

If it’s two syllabals, that’s close enough. Same for B’ham. I think worrying about about stresses is overkill 
Moskva, yeah. Probably in Russian.
Interestingly, I worked with two women who were both born in Russia and moved to Seattle from Moscow, and each one pronounced it MOS-coh.
