rotundity

State of roundness

Rotundity is roundness or plumpness, especially of the human body.

The word carries a slightly formal or literary tone, often with gentle humor: His rotundity made squeezing through the narrow doorway a challenge.

It can also describe spherical quality more abstractly: the rotundity of the earth.
