Iʼm not sure I understand what you mean. 'C-x 8 e' is not a complete
key sequence, itʼs a prefix. And the character inserted is always the
second one from the vector in the binding.

Just to be sure, I tried:

(define-key iso-transl-ctl-x-8-map "ff" (vector #x2660 #x2661))

Thereʼs no 'C-x 8 f' bindings at all, and this ends up inserting
U+2661, as does

(define-key iso-transl-ctl-x-8-map "f" (vector #x2660 #x2661))
