Nothing. Undecided over whether to honor his father or her's (both of which started with 'S'), Harry's parents decided to just make it 'S'. Also there is no period after the "S".
Alternate Answer/ Additional Information: His grandfathers, Anderson Shipp Truman and Solomon Young, could not agree on what Harry's middle name should be, and so Harry was given only a middle initial of "S", which stood for Solomon or Shipp, depending on which side of the family one asked.
