Pelagia of Jerusalem

Blois château, France. One of a series of female saints in the Oratory (once the queen's private chapel). Designed by Michel Dumas in 1858, the windows were painted by Claudius Lavergne in 1859. Each of the saints depicted has a connection to the Medici or Valois family. This somewhat unsaintly figure has me completely beaten. Suggestions please as to the saint represented.
