The children of celebrities are famous by default so it's no wonder that their names ring a bell with parents who are seeking the best name for their little one. Check out these trendy celebrity baby names that are moving up the charts.

Angelina Jolie and MaddoxCelebrities are notorious for giving their offspring the most unique and downright bizarre names. Those names are the ones that make the headlines and inspire the most talk around the water cooler -- or around the internet. Many celebrities, however, pick names that are "regular" and some even seem to inspire a new trend in baby naming. Based on movement on the Social Security Administration's popularity chart for 2009, here are celebrity baby names that either continue their popular position on the chart or are moving on up.
