I would be pissed at your friend for sharing the name before registering it. She got what she deserved. But as for you... you gave your friend the help. You shouldn't be upset too much after a while. Just talk with her, and say that what she did wasn't the brightest thing to do, and that in the future, you (two) should register the name before sharing it with others.
That's what I do. I brainstorm with a friend of mine a lot. He gives me a topic and one key word, and I give him a couple of hundred domain names that are not registered. (thanks to pcnames.com) Just recently, he came up with a favorite, I came with a favorite, and his wife came up with one. So he registered all three and is developing the one his wife suggested. (It will be her site) but the other domains point there.
Should I have "sold" him my list of unprocured names? Probably. But he's my friend, and the perks I get elsewhere.
