Use VertexLabelStyle

Graph[{1, 2, 3}, {DirectedEdge[1, 2], DirectedEdge[2, 3], 
  DirectedEdge[3, 1]}, {VertexLabels -> {Placed["Name", Center]}, 
  VertexSize -> {Medium}, VertexLabelStyle -> {24}}]

I want to make the "Names" labels of vertices in a Graph larger.  The 
"obvious" way...

   Graph[{1, 2, 3},
      {DirectedEdge[1, 2], DirectedEdge[2, 3], DirectedEdge[3, 1]},
      {VertexLabels -> {Placed["Name", Center]}, VertexSize -> {Medium},
      VertexStyle -> {24}}]

...seems to do nothing. And replacing the option VertexStyle -> {24} 
with the wordier VertexStyle -> {FontSize->24} prevents Mathematica from 
evaluating the Graph expression at all.
