Certainement, Bien sûr, Évidemment

When asked for "Of course" why is certainement not an acceptable answer? It seems like a better choice than évidemment as the latter implies an obviousness to the thing asked (to get closer) where certainement just carries a higher degree of being able to do so. Can you clarify? Thank you.
