Data is lost if unflatten column name begins with name

[jessicamrbr]

import flatten_json

records = {
    'lives.name':'person',
    'lives.name_mother':'mother'
}

flatten_json.unflatten(records, ".")

expected:

{
   'lives': {
      'name': 'person',
      'name_mother': 'mother'
   }
}

but result in:

{
   'lives': {
      'name_mother': 'mother'
   }
}

I faced the same issue. Here is my simple test:

dic = {
    'a': 1,
    'ab': 2,
}

unflatten(dic)

Expected:
{ "a": 1, "ab": 2 }
Actual:
{ "ab": 2 }

Solved as of flatten_json==0.1.8. But you probably have version 0.1.7 installed from pypi. Refer to #65 ; #65 (comment).
