I highly believe SOS means save our soul.
That sites gives no reasoning behind their claim, no one just picks letters
for no reasoning.

This Is a simple one: BTW-bye the way.
I visited www.acronymfinder.com. Here is something I wanted to share. /SOS
[not an acronym] a common misconception is that SOS means Save Our
Ship/Souls (a distress call); the letters don't actually stand for
anything./
I always wanted to know what SOS really meant. It is not an acronym at all.
Cool site.
