You just need to modify the language/[your language here]/strings.xml file to say what you want. Those should be in the system wide strings, but be aware that some skins contain local skin specific strings as well.

Starting on line 73 of Home.xml found in the PAL folder of the skin you will see a section of code like this,

Code:

			<content>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-video.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-video-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31001</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(MyVideoFiles)</onclick>
					<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(movie-library)</visible>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-video.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-video-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31001</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(MyVideoLibrary,MovieTitles)</onclick>
					<visible>Skin.HasSetting(movie-library)</visible>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-tv.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-tv-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31010</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(MyVideoLibrary,tvshowtitles)</onclick>
					<visible>!Skin.HasSetting(tv-library)</visible>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-youtube.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-youtube-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>YouTube</label>
					<onclick>XBMC.RunScript(Q:\scripts\YouTube\default.py)</onclick>
					<visible>Skin.HasSetting(home-youtube)</visible>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-music.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-music-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31003</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(MyMusic)</onclick>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-programs.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-programs-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31002</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(MyPrograms)</onclick>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-photo.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-photo-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31004</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(MyPictures)</onclick>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-weather.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-weather-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31005</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(Weather)</onclick>
					<visible>Skin.HasSetting(home-weather)</visible>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-settings.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-settings-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31015</label>
					<onclick>ActivateWindow(50)</onclick>
				</item>
				<item>
				 	<icon>icon-disc.png</icon>
				 	<thumb>icon-disc-blur1.png</thumb>
					<label>31009</label>
					<onclick>XBMC.PlayDVD</onclick>
					<visible>System.HasMediaDVD</visible>
				</item>
			</content>

All you have to do is find the button you want to remove it from <item> to </item>.
