I'm not sure cannon answers this explicitly but my take is this:
Pureblood: magical from the beginning of time. (Weasleys, Malfoys)
Halfblood: any combination of non pure-pure or muggle-muggle
parentage.
Pure-Muggle: Tom/LV
Pure-Half: ?
Half-Half: ?
Pure-Mud: Harry (though James could have been a half)
Mud-Mud: ?
Mudblood: both parents muggle (Hermione)
Squib: a pure or half blood with no magical powers
Muggle: muggle born muggle.
An interesting question would be if a pureblood squib married a
pureblood would the child be considered a pureblood if it wasn' a
squib also?
