Get Magento Sub-Categories in Alphabetical Order

I'm using the code below to get all the subcategories of category '9'.
The code works great, but it sort the subcategory by id or creation date, I need to sort the subcategories alphabetically.

<?php
$categories = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->getCollection()->addAttributeToSelect('*')->addAttributeToFilter('parent_id', 9);

foreach ($categories as $cat) { ?>
    <?php 
        $entity_id = $cat->getId();
        $name = $cat->getName();
        $url_key = $cat->getUrlKey();
        $url_path = $cat->getUrlPath();
        $skin_url = $cat->getImageUrl();
    ?>
    <div>
        <a href="<?php echo $url_path ?>">
            <?php 
                echo '<img style="width: 100%;" src="'.$skin_url.'" />';
            ?>

            <div class="brand-border-top"></div>
            <div class="brand-border-bottom"></div>
            <div class="brand-overlay">
                <?php echo $name = $cat->getName(); ?>
            </div>
        </a>
    </div>
<?php } ?>

Use

->addAttributeToSort('name','ASC');

In your case

$categories = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->getCollection()->addAttributeToSelect('*')->addAttributeToFilter('parent_id', 9)->addAttributeToSort('name','ASC');
