The kanji 侑 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, けいせいいもじ). It combines the phonetic component 有 (yuu, meaning "to have" or "to possess") with the semantic component 亻 (ninben, representing "person"). This suggests that the character originally meant to "have" or "possess" something to help or support someone. The 亻 indicates the action is related to people. The combination created the idea of giving assistance or support.
