Rangers should have things that help at range. Ergo, Sorcerers and Wizards that cast Magic Missile are rangers. ๐
Imma make a PC that's a Yosemite National Park Ranger who is very confused about how they ended up in Faerun.
I never missed a shot with magic missile. Can your ranger say the same?
Yes. My ranger has also never missed a shot with magic missile.
Brian below linked the etymology - but a ranger for Tolkien was pretty close to a park ranger: someone who wandered the woods keeping things safe.
