Actually, this patch will break most of the single-file packages.  Try,
for example, the following command with your patch:

  guix build emacs-adaptive-wrap

As you can see, the elisp file is called "adaptive-wrap" instead of
"adaptive-wrap.el".  I would rather suggest to fix the packages you
mentioned (emacs-key-chord, etc.) to add 'file-name' field as it is done
for the other single-file packages (emacs-web-mode, emacs-yaml-mode,
etc.)
