Updating your contact after declining their firm

I had been interviewing with two firms and was presented an offer from one as I was still in the process with the other. They wanted me to start asap and I didn't want to be left standing when the music stopped so I accepted.

I updated my contact and HR at the other firm to withdraw my application. My contact asked me which firm I had accepted. How do I respond without causing more damage? Thanks
