Behind The Name DOOKIE by Green Day

Liquid Dookie was the original name of the album but they settled on Dookie after the title was deemed "too gross."

as Billie Joe said in Confessions of a Basket Case, Billie Joe: "It's a really disgusting story, but I'll tell it. We were on tour, and you eat bad food all the time. You just end up getting the shits basically. So we started calling it liquid Dookie. Like, "How did it go in the bathroom?" "Oh, liquid, man, liquid." Later on we were like, "Wouldn't it be fun if we named our record that?"" - Billie Joe Armstrong (Confessions of a Basket Case, VH1 2002)

I mean, for a band who's previous album was called Kerplunk!, I don't see why not. Dookie goes Kerplunk!
