Etymology
The word 'rangier' is derived from the adjective 'rangy', originating in the early 20th century. The etymology of 'rangy' relates to 'range' which refers to the extent of space or area covered. It suggests a person or creature that is long, tall, and can cover a significant distance, paralleling the natural range of tall, lean animals in the wild. This word has since evolved to describe not just physicality, but also persona, indicating a certain level of grace coupled with a long-limbed form. The suffix 'ier' indicates a comparative form, enhancing the original adjective to denote even greater qualities of being rangy.
