He had the "S" on the first Superman before Lois Lane named him Superman.

How can it be for where he came from when nobody knew where he came from. He just appeared in the field. I thought maybe it was Strength. I didnt think the older couple who found him over did anything with the crystal unitl Clark took it when he was older.

The S is actually not an S at all. It is a Krptonian symbol that stands for 'The House of El' which is the family where Superman (Kal-El) came from on Kryton. Actually, it has been around for many years, references to that fact have been around since at least the 1970s. While Siegel and Shuster obviously meant for the stylized S to stand for Superman, in both the 1970s movie and the 1986 re-vamp of the comic book, Superman had no actual name until he was named by Lois Lane. It was intended that Lois got the idea from both his Super Human feats and what appeared to be the letter S on his chest.

You're right, it doesn't stand for "Superman." The "s" is actually a modification of a Kryptonian symbol -- Jor-el's family crest, if I'm not mistaken. This was written into canon in recent years, of course; it _did_ just stand for "Superman" originally.

I've even heard that the "s" is relative to the word science since his father Jor-El was a scientist on Krypton.

It's origins appear to be the character's initial and also Siegel and Shuster initials.
