Correct Answer:

Humble 

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word LOFTY is HUMBLE.

  • Humble means "having or showing a modest or low estimate of one's own importance."

The other words do not have the same meaning as humble.

  • Pertinacious means "stubbornly refusing to change one's mind or give up."
