C# was developed by Microsoft as part of their .NET initiative. Microsoft
based C# on C++ and Java. Anders Hejlsberg is C#'s creator.
I've never seen anything specific on the association with the # symbol in
the name other than it's obvious music notation meaning, "Raised in pitch by
a semitone".
Have fun with C#.

The sharp also plays on the + theme, because a # is two overlapping +'s...

And Delphi! Hejlsberg also designed Delphi and, ignoring superficial
differences in the look of the languages, C# is arguably closer to
Delphi under the hood than it is to Java; and certainly much closer to
Delphi than to C++.
