Many things bothered me in this game. Here's one of them:
Spoiler!
Tommy ACTIVELY giving away his name and Joel's to Abby. Why!? She's a complete stranger! Neither Tommy nor Joel owe her a damn thing!
Abby owes Tommy and Joel her life actually, and we see how wonderfully she repaid that debt.
And some wonder why Abby isn't too well-liked.

Well Sure it was odd, but again they were different people than on the first game. They were set on a city and recruiting, they had saved the girl so he wasn't suspicious of anything strange that needed him being cautious. And about Abby there really isn't much reason to repay in a different way considering that she already had her mind set before hand.

"they had saved the girl so he wasn't suspicious of anything strange that needed him being cautious"
>The fact that Abby was a complete stranger should have been reason enough.

SPOILER! Sorry I don't know how to add spoilers, from my phone.
What about in the first game when ellie/joel gave their names away to strangers in the first game, sam/henry.
What about how everyone in the first game, from davids camp, all of a sudden decided to stop searching for joel but all decided to go after a non important "ellie" instead.
These didn't bother you? As for abby killing joel, she spent years in pain, gave up a lot, day by by with the intent to avenge her father. Mentally you think she is just going to forget all her rage and mission for revenge, even if the "enemy" happened to save her in the heat of the moment. Psychologicaly it's conflicting, but her desire and years of revenge chasing the man was a lot stronger. As for tommy, he killed her best friend, or close friend, not to mention other friends of hers. It's sad really, all the hate she gets, because it's not her fault. She actually has the biggest heart in the game, as evident from the flashbacks, the way she treats her own friends, the conversations we hear, she has her people's back , goes out on a limb for them, and not to mention willing to give her on life for strangers she just got to know, once considered enemies, and risked her life several times to save people. This whole thing is the result of joel's actions, yet people treat abby as some animal.

>There are differences to consider: Ellie gave Joel's name away. Joel did not give his name away to Sam and Henry. Sam could have shot Joel but didn't: more reason to trust Sam/Henry.
Tommy looks Abby in the eye and gives away names: surely Tommy would know better? This after learning Joel had to kill a lot of people to save Ellie: Joel killed the Fireflies leader, Marlene!
Joel has reason to fear strangers!
And then Tommy and Joel agree to follow Abby to a den full of her friends; more strangers!

What's the problem there?
Spoiler!
Telling complete strangers your name is... usually the first thing you do when talking to a complete stranger. "Hi, my name is ????" is the normal thing to say. I don't see why a zombie apocalypse would change that.

Considering you're killing more people than zombies in the game, seems to me complete strangers are more dangerous.
