I quite did not understand your question..but tried my best..

You want to populate a drop down list with the list of strings.

I am using Jquery to do this.
Once you have the array of strings in your javascript you then iterate through the array and create the <option> elements with the array values and append it to the select box.

  $.each(relationsList, function(val, text) {
      $('#relationsDropDown').append( $('<option></option>').val(val).html(text) );
  });

According to the updated question.. I made the changes and here is the JSFIDDLE
