stoutest
Thickest and strongest
Stoutest is the superlative of stout—the most sturdy, thickest, or bravest among a group.
A stout person is heavyset; a stout rope is thick and strong; a stout defense is resolute: the stoutest walls of the fortress, the stoutest hearts among them.
The word often suggests admirable strength rather than mere bulk.
