Actually this is exactly what I do :)
I have a definitions file in which I put everything in identifiers, such as

pieceLayout=
#(define-music-function (parser location piece) (string?)
#{\markup { \fill-line { \center-align {\fontsize #10 $piece }}}#})

And this way, when typesetting each separate piece, in the \header I
only have to specify
\include "definitions.ly"
\header {
piece= \pieceLayout #"Here is my title"
}

...and the title gets printed the way I want.

I thought you were asking for tips about specific font parameters,
this why I simplified my snippet on purpose...

Regards,
Valentin
