Oops.  The docs say 
  "The placement and style of the instrumentCueName is controlled by
   the \instrumentSwitch object,"
but that should be the InstrumentSwitch object, as in
  \once\override InstrumentSwitch #'font-series = #'bold
  \set instrumentCueName = "ten."

The double printing from an \instrumentSwitch is issue 2835.
\instrumentSwitch has been called into service for two jobs

You can avoid the difficulties if you use text markup instead of
instrumentCueName

  \labelTenor =  <>^\markup\bold"ten."
  { g'1
    \new CueVoice {
      \labelTenor
      g'1 } }
