The verb "suscribirse" comes from the Latin "subscribere," which is a compound of "sub-" meaning "under, below," and "scribere," meaning "to write." Hence, the original sense was "to write underneath," referring to the practice of writing one’s name at the end of a document as a form of consent or agreement.
