stout-hearted
Bold and unwavering
Stout-hearted means brave and resolute, especially in the face of difficulty or danger.
The term suggests not flashy heroism but steady courage—the kind that endures: a stout-hearted defense of the city, stout-hearted pioneers who crossed the mountains.
The word has an old-fashioned, slightly literary flavor.
