It is Cupid!
two hearts and two names Simon and Vio (from Violetta). And it is a smallsword all day (look at the proportions between the length of the hilt and the length of the blade).

blade length
It is a 36" /92cm blade; very sharp on both sides.
A wedding present from the bride's family perhaps; it is the lower line that stump me as it is one word and my mother-in-law couldn't identify it but maybe it is Spanish or Portuguese etc. |

ps
it is a large hilt as well, hence the deceptive proportions

The lower line definitely does NOT appear to be one word, but a succession of abbreviated words (I suggest below one possible way of separating the words), hence the difficulty of deciphering its meaning.
