Lasagne is the Italian name for the noodles used in a lasagna casserole. So it would be technically incorrect to use it for a casserole made with a different type of noodles.
And I'm not aware of any other use of lasagne noodles, so while you will probably have to call your soup "lasagne soup" if it contains them, and Italians will also use the term "lasagne al forno" when they want to be specific about the dish. But in practice, I have never seen recipes for anything else made from these noodles, and Italians shorten the dish name to just "lasagne" too.
Else, any casserole made with lasagne noodles should be called lasagne. The other ingredients don't matter much - there are versions without bechamel, without meat, etc. Pasticcio is a wider category of casseroles which doesn't have a strict definition. It is the Italian spelling, you will also see other variants such as pastitsio. It usually has noodles, but not always.
Lasagne is a subtype of pasticcio, and the most common pasticcio in Italy - note that on the Italian Wikipedia, "pasticcio cucina " redirects to "Lasagne al forno". In Italy with Pasticcio we are usually referring to other kind of pasta rather than the lasagna noodle. For example I simply love the white lasagna with artichokes!
Disclaimer: as almost the totally of the italian dishes this differs from region to region, and so the name or ingredients could change! Bonus: "pasticcio" in italian means "mess" "che pasticcio! The main difference is lasagna tends to have wide flat noodles, and tends to be a dish made within the inspirations of the Italian cuisine.
Pasticcio tends to use other pastas such as penne , and the flavor elements may be inspired by the greater variety of flavors found around the Mediterranean, such as cinnamon in a Greek-based version.
Both are basically baked pasta casseroles, which is a vibrant and rapidly evolving category in food, so i would just make what you like, and call it what you want. Lasagne al forno is a pasticcio. So is pretty much any pasta al forno. Lasagna is one of many pasticcios you could make -- unless you're talking to a Bolognese, in which case they'll insist that the only proper name for the lasagne dish is lasagne -- or better, lasagne Bolognese of course :.
Add a salad and some crusty bread and the meal is complete! Pastitsio can be a great way to use leftover pasta, and, in fact, it makes for some great leftovers by itself. Some Greeks swear it's even tastier on the second day. Actively scan device characteristics for identification. Use precise geolocation data.
