Mum accuses friend of 'lying' after reaction to 'classic' but 'bland' baby name

A woman has been accused of "lying" after her reaction to her pregnant friend's choice of name for her unborn baby.

The woman doesn't "personally" like her pregnant friend's chosen name but to avoid offending her, she "automatically" responded that it was "nice". Later, her friend contacted her via WhatsApp to ask her if she did in fact like the name because she got the "feeling" that she didn't.

Unsure of what to do, and describing herself as a "s*** liar", the woman took to Mumset's popular Am I Being Unreasonable (AIBU) thread to seek advice and to ask whether she should carry on lying to spare her friend's feelings, or whether she should admit she doesn't like the name. Her pregnant friend has chosen the name Susan for her unborn child.
