You can use \set to change shortInstrumentName on the fly at any time. Whatever is its value is when a new system begins is what gets written before the staff. If you're using something like \RemoveAllEmptyStaves, you might need a bit of trial and error to make sure you place each of your \set shortInstrumentName declarations in the appropriate place for the line break decisions being made by LP.
