Oronyms

An oronym is a string of words or a phrase that sounds the same as another string of words or phrase, but is spelt differently, e.g. ice cream and I scream. Oronyms usually occur because sometimes in speech it is almost impossible to tell where one word ends and the next begins. This seamlessness of speech can often cause misunderstandings, so be careful how you phrase the things you say.
