Pun : play on words: a humorous use of words that involves a word or phrase that has more than one possible meaning.... Pun is a fun...
The Oxford English Dictionary defines a double entendre as especially being used to "convey an indelicate meaning." It may be used to express potentially offensive opinions without the risks of explicitly doing so.
A double entendre may exploit puns to convey the second meaning. Double entendres generally rely on multiple meanings of words, or different interpretations of the same primary meaning. They often exploit ambiguity and may be used to introduce it deliberately in a text. Sometimes a homophone (i.e. a different spelling that yields the same pronunciation) can be used as a pun as well as a "double entendre" of the subject.
