I have a necklace with a pendent that has SV 925 stamped on the back. What does the SV 925 stand for? I thought maybe Silver Plate Value Or Silver Value.

Most likely the Intitials stand for the manufacturer identification.... and the 925 could stand for the silver quality... 950/1000 silver content... designating it is STERLING Silver. Hope this helps.

I'd concur. The SV is clearly a maker's mark, and the 925 is just the sterling content.
