A name that means "fma homunculus + seven deadly sins + ultimate spear".

Lust is from the Japanese manga — referencing the Christian Seven Deadly Sins. A modern American baby name in the broader Japanese anime heritage aesthetic. Lust is a character in Fullmetal Alchemist (2001-2010) and Brotherhood (2009-2010) by Hiromu Arakawa. The FMA manga has sold over 80 million copies worldwide; Brotherhood held #1 on MyAnimeList for over a decade. Lust is one of the seven Homunculi embodying the Seven Deadly Sins. Her Ultimate Spear — extending fingernails into killing weapons — and her death by Colonel Roy Mustang's flame alchemy are foundational antagonist moments. Her ouroboros tattoo became one of the iconic anime villainess designs of the 2000s.

Featured throughout Japanese anime.
