I want my photos to be stored like this

YYYY/YYYY-MM-DD_Name_of_shooting/YYYY-MM-DD_Name_of_shooting_001.nef

(The date is the date of shooting)

Is it possible to setup LR 4 in the way that everything I have to do while importing is to fill in the Name_of_shooting?

I have achieved it, but it is not optimal since I have to type folder name manually. I have created Template in File Renaming. I just have to type Custom text (=Name_of_shooting) and it renames files correctly. Thats fine.

But next I want LR to put it in folder with the date and Name_of_shooting from template. In Destination I leave selected the root YYYY folder. Next I've ticked "Into subfolder" and I always have to manually fill in the date and the Name_of_shooting. "Organize" is set to "Into one folder".

This is something similar to Q here, but what they achieved is using the current date and no Name_of_shooting in folder name through a little hack in LR.
