In music, two notes that sound the same but are spelled differently are called enharmonic notes.
For example:
F# sounds the same as G♭
C# sounds the same as D♭
G# sounds the same as A♭
D# sounds the same as E♭
A# sounds the same as B♭
E# sounds the same as F
B# sounds the same as C
So, if you look closely at the Circle of Fifths, you will see that some key signatures overlap. This is because enharmonically they sound the same :)
