I'm an Atheist Agnostic also, though back when I first started to de-convert I did go through a phase where you could have called me an Ignostic, since I required from theists a coherent definition of the deity they argued was real.
Then I stopped the futile goal of knowing with certainty and realised the true beauty and honesty in the often-despised statement "I don't know", because its the only proper way to start off any kind of investigation into the unknown, and as a position within responding to my opponents' arguments, unlike their positive ontological claims, it carried no burden of proof at all.
While I lack belief in any kind of god or "supernatural" entity, and within the context of practical knowledge such concepts are meaningless, from the debates I had with others regarding deities, and in turn, avoiding unjustifiable arguments they were blundering upon as a rebuttal I finally identified myself as a weak agnostic, because the existence of a cosmos creator is currently unknown but is not necessarily unknowable. To assert a universe-creator is for a fact knowable or unknowable without prior evidence is nothing but an argument from personal incredulity.
