ELI5: How can two items with the same name be in the Recycle Bin at the same time?

The recycling bin isn't a regular folder. It also contains a reference to the original location (because you can restore it) and presumably uses a unique identifier other than the filename, so you can even have two items from the same location with the same name in the recycling bin. 

The same way your school/work's student/employee database won't get confused if you have two people called John Doe, it creates a unique identifier for every new entry so it can internally keep track of things even if no human ever sees that unique identifier.
