Well, in addition to the methods mentioned here, there's also a feature request that is asking for this to be a feature in JIRA here : JRA-21293

I would recommend that you vote for it and watch the ticket

Have alook at this plugin from Atlassian that makes it simpler.

The recommended way would be to modify the english translation of your JIRA, changing the line like:

menu.issues.new.issue = Create issue

into

menu.issues.new.issue = YOUR TEXT HERE

You can download an english translation of JIRA from Atlassian translations and edit the language jar archive to rename those buttons. The file, inside the jar archive, you need is "com/atlassian/jira/web/action/JiraWebActionSupport.properties". Find it and edit it (change "menu.issues.new.issue = Create issue" and "menu.issues.header = Issues").

After that, save your jar file and re-upload it as a plugin (replacing the old english translation) and refresh your JIRA page. It should look better now :)

P.S.

If, for any reason, that doesn't work as expected, you can edit the current language file that your JIRA is using, by first searching for the files (in your JIRA home directory) like: "jira-languages-*-en_*"

There will be several files. You need to see in your JIRA admin panel which language is currently selected and choose that language file name. Edit it, repack it, and restart JIRA. That should also do the job.
