Normally you should just change diary-date-forms directly.

Anyway, I imagine you are somehow loading calendar.el before your
customization of european-date-diary-pattern. For example, you might
have something like:

(diary)
(setq european-date-diary-pattern ...)

Make sure calendar.el is not loaded before your customizations take
effect.
