The symbol pH (small p, capital H) stands for "potential of hydrogen" and is defined as "a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, numerically equal to 7 for neutral solutions, increasing with increasing alkalinity and decreasing with increasing acidity. The pH scale commonly in use ranges from 0 to 14" (American Heritage Dictionary).

If you read the full article, you will see that both "potential" and "power" are used. In mathematics, "power" means "exponent."
