I'm currently creating a resume using the res class. Is there a way for me to change the font size of the name parameter (which appears at the top of the page for me)? It's not quite like a section header because it's automatically there.

I have a little code that I took from a German website some times ago (I can not find it to reference sadly). With a little modification it is partially similar to what you are looking for. Maybe it can be a good starting point:
\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\colorlet{chapter}{cyan}
\addtokomafont{chapter}{\color{chapter}}
\makeatletter
\renewcommand*{\chapterformat}{
\begingroup
\setlength{\unitlength}{1mm}
\begin{picture}(40,30)(0,5)
\setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt}
\put(0,15){\line(1,0){\dimexpr
\textwidth-1\unitlength\relax\@gobble}}
\put(40,15){\makebox(\dimexpr
\textwidth-20\unitlength\relax\@gobble,\ht\strutbox\@gobble)[l]{
\ \normalsize\color{cyan}\chapapp~\thechapter\autodot
}}
\end{picture}
\endgroup

By using what the arabtex names "small" version, you get reduced size that's comparable to the size of Latin characters:
\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage{arabtex,lipsum}
%%% from Uxnsh.fd
\DeclareFontFamily{U}{xnsh}{}%
\DeclareFontShape{U}{xnsh}{m}{n}{%
<-6> sfixed * [6.0] xnsh14
<6-10> s * [1.20] xnsh14
<10><10.95><12><14.4><17.28><20.74><24.88> s * [1.20] xnsh14
}{}
\DeclareFontShape{U}{xnsh}{bx}{n}{%
<-6> sfixed * [6.0] xnsh14bf
<6-10> s * [1.20] xnsh14bf
<10><10.95><12><14.4><17.28><20.74><24.88> s * [1.20] xnsh14bf
}{}
%%% end of added code

The
resclass provides\namefontwhich you can redefine to suit your needs. Default is\large\bfseries:I'd avoid using the
resclass, and settle for something more recent, likemoderncv, or create your resume manually.
