Answers:
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!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Yes, the Kryptonian symbol just happens to look like our letter 'S' with a shield around it!. But it was still Siegel and Shuster's intention to make the 'S' stand for 'Super'!.
What most people don't realized, though, is that on the front of Superman's boots is a very subtle 'M' shape!. So you have 'S' for 'Super' and 'M' for 'Man'!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

The 'S' was actually the family crest in the first Superman movie!. Marlon Brando apparently came up with the idea to use it that way!. The comics then adopted a similar idea, but the 'S' was changed to the Kryptonian symbol for HOPE rather than the family crest!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Super- but if you watch Smallville, the "S" inside the shield is replaced with an "8"- the 8 inside the shield is the Kryptonian symbol for the word "hope"!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
