The Irish word for 'kiss' is 'póg' and 'pogue' is sometimes used as the Anglicization of that in non-Irish speaking countries like the US. So that might have been what they were going for?
Terrible as a name though.

That also comes about because of the meaning of 'pogue' in Irish. More specifically, The Pogues took their name from póg mo thóin (pogue mahone is the Anglicized version), which means "kiss my ass".
