You can't unset shortInstrumentName here, since \trumpet will later set it
again... (also, you'd have to use \unset rather than \remove to unset a
variable like shortInstrumentName)
However, you can remove the engraver, i.e. the internal program part that is
responsible for reading the shortInstrumentName setting and generating the
appropriate graphical object for it; Lilypond consists of lots of such small
independent modules (engravers), where each is responsible for one small part
of the output. That way it is simple to turn of some output by simply removing
the engraver.:
\book { \score { << \new Staff = "trumpet" \with { \remove
Instrument_name_engraver } \trumpet >> } }
Attached is the file from you mail, where I only changed shortInstrumentName
to Instrument_name_engraver (and commented/removed lines that referred to
definitions you deleted).

Cool, thanks, that works. Actually it works too well. So I need to place
the instrument name in the header somewhere. It looks like using the
header item Piece will work fine so I tried this -
\book { \score { \header {piece="Trumpet 1"} << \new Staff = "trumpet"
\with { \remove Instrument_name_engraver } \trumpet >> } }
but get an error about an unexpected \header. The \header goes inside
the \score{} right? So why doesn't this work?
