I found an even better solution. Put the vocalName definition in the \with {}
block for the Lyrics context:
\new Lyrics \with {
vocalName = "1."
\override InstrumentName #'font-series = #'bold
} \lyricsto sopranos \verseOne
you could also put the shortVocalName definition there. The preceding \set
command is not needed in \with blocks.
LilyPond probably does not print the vocalName if defined using \set inside
the lyrics input, because the context is created at the start of the score,
and only when there are notes, the lyric input is processed. And at that
moment the \set vocalName command is encountered. But is has no effect anymore
as the context has already been created one eight note ago (in this case).
