Spagnostic
One who believes the Flying Spaghetti Monster is the true creator but does not know which Pastafarian denomination is the true church. For example, most Pastafarians believe the FSM sauce is tomato based, where as others believe it is pesto or cream.
Mark: Hey Mary, are you a member of the Church of Alfredo or are you a Pestoinian?
Mary: Neither, I'm not sure if the FSM is alfredo, pesto or tomato based, so I am Spagnostic.
Mary: Neither, I'm not sure if the FSM is alfredo, pesto or tomato based, so I am Spagnostic.

ignosticism
The position that there are many different, contradictory definitions for the word "God", so one can't claim to be a theist OR an atheist until one knows which definition is meant. Furthermore, if the chosen definition is incoherent and makes no predictions that can be empirically tested, then it doesn't matter whether one believes in it or not, for how can something meaningless be true OR false? (this last part is also known as theological noncognitivism)
Ignosticism parable:
An ignostic was asked whether he believed in God, and said, "If you mean a big man in a cloud, as children conceive of God, then I am an atheist, for we have satellites now which would have surely seen such a creature if he existed. If you mean an all-encompassing God who is synonymous with the entire universe, then I am a theist... though I see no reason for having two words for the same thing. If you mean a vaguely-defined supernatural being whose existence cannot be tested, then I am a theological noncognitivist; it doesn't matter whether a meaningless thing is true or not, and I won't worry about it any more than I will about invisible pink unicorns."

ignostic
One who professes ignorance on the knowledge of whether or not any gods exist, or even what the term means. It is a play on the words "ignorant" (to lack knowledge) and "gnostic," (knowledge pertaining to gods).
Ignosticism is sometimes compared to theological noncognitivism, and while one may be both an ignostic and a theological noncognitivist, they aren't mutually inclusive. It is also often compared to agnosticism, and nontheism in general. Most ignostics would be categorized as "weak" or "negative" atheists.
