They're more typically known as "hand and a half" swords, longswords, or bastard swords. This is actually the first I've heard "one and a half handed sword", even though I knew what you meant.
No matter how you write it in your character profile though, you'll still need to detail its size; particularly the length & width of the blade, and optionally the length of the hilt. What the sword is made out of would also be useful information, although I believe most people assume that swords are made of good quality steel.
