It’s a riff on the children’s game “duck duck goose”.

The biggest problem is that it's the American (UK as well?) name for a children's game - not the sort of thing most English speakers would ever learn, unless they are really connected to US/UK culture.

The game is probably more or less universal, but the name is unrecognizable.

I feel like it’s such an oddball name that it sticks in my head.

Oddly, in some regions of the US, the same game is called "duck, duck, grey duck".
