There has been some controversy with myself and one of my friends if there is a C# or not. I have looked it up on the internet but my friend still don't believe me. So if you would send me some of your infomation on it so I can prove to my friends that I'm not the only one that is sure there is a C#. I appreciate it.
Anyway, going with the same train of thought, there is also an E# or an F flat. Technically. There can also be a C flat or a B#. Why is this? E# is the same as F. F flat is the same as E. C flat is the same as B. B# is the same as C.
Those are called enharmonic tones- notes that have more than one name. So you could call C#... D flat. Or if you're being creative, you could call it B double sharp. Any note that you name like that really does exist, but it may not be the only name for that note.

I don't have physical proof but go to any piano book and look for something in the key of D. There will be, in the key signeture, an F# and C#. C# is the black key to the right of the white key
