Do you reckon the "i" could be a "¡"? If so, you need to add something to the quotation, like "¡Viva el rei!" = "Long live the king." It's a present subjunctive and really means something like "let him/her/it live".
Hope this helps. PS You're much more likely to get decent answers from Y!A if you give a little more context - to say what does i viva mean doesn't help. It may even be Italian rather than Spanish (which doesn't have a word "i"), but from what you let us know, we cannot tell . . .

I would guess it means I "Live" but the correct way of saying it would be Yo Vivo unless you were a woman then it would be
Yo Viva.
By putting "i viva" - with an a on the end of viva - this would imply to me that it is in the feminine gender rather than the masculine.
However the correct way of saying it would be Yo Viva.
The Yo - meaning "I" immaterial of its gender.

I guess you mean the Italian word "Evviva" which sound is very similar to yr writing.(correct spelling is ehv-vée-vah).
However Italian 'evviva' means 'hoorah' / ' hooray'
