This game is easy. You just have to say what the S in S. Theodora Markson stand for (preferably something absurd, and if possible, include an image to make it funnier). It stands for Sunny. As Sunny Baudelaire herself said in TE, like the Snickets, the Baudelaire name their children after some dead family member. Sunny Theodora Markson is a relative of Beatrice (maybe her mother?) and she hates her first name because she's everything but sunny.

^That isn't a ridiculous theory, it's actually quite plausible.
Could stand for Sugar bowl.

It stands for 'Secret,' which is why she keeps it one.

It stands for 'Sir.' Theodora is transgender, and was knighted before her transition. She wanted to keep her highly prestigious title, but the English government is old fashioned and does not recognize a change from 'Sir' to 'Dame' or vice versa, so she now just shortens it to S. when introducing herself.

It stands for 'Sagebush.' Her parents were gardeners, and after knowing what her hair would be like, they thought it was appropriate. When it was discovered that she had not inherited her parents' green thumb, she shortened her name to forget the family awkwardness.

It stands for 'Sorry'. Theodora is actually Belgian, and has a past as a literary author, having written the children's mystery book But I Cannot Meet You At The Fountain, a classic that is nevertheless little known outside of Belgium.

It stands for 'Sally.' She's just never been a big fan of the name.

It stands for Shirley, but she can't stand all the "Surely you can't be serious" jokes, so she doesn't want to be called Shirley.

It stands for 'Snicket.' No actual relation to Lemony, but she thought it would be awkward if he found out about the connection.

It stands for 'Salsa'. She's too decent to use the real word.
PS: I actually wrote 'Salsa', not 'salsa'.

Yes i've heard about people who have foreign names when translated to english is swearing, but in their country it's perfectly normal. A posibility I think for her.

It stands for 'Something I won't tell'. After many confusing incidents, she just decided to actually avoid saying it.

It stands for 'Secret,' which is why she keeps it one. I just read this one, is the one I was about to say because I remembered something funny haha. I had a teacher (now colleague) who's last name is actually "Secreto" (Secret in Spanish). Some years ago we went to a conference and when we tried to do the registration this happened: Guy: Good morning, what's your name? She: Cecilia. Guy: Cecilia what? She: Secret. Guy: Well, I need to put your last name here. She: I'm telling you, my last name is Secret. Guy: Okay lady, if you don't want to tell me I can't register you. She: MY LAST NAME IS SECRET! I'M CECILIA SECRET! Then she showed him her ID and he finally understood.
