Javascript/jQuery - replace last occurence of a word in a string

I have a string that ends with a fixed word - Button. Now I need to replace that word with ''. How can I do it? Also, if my string is something like ButtonButton or similar, I need to cut out only last Button.

If you don't have to check, if it really ends with Button, just remove the last 6 letters:

var str = "ButtonButton"; 
str = str.substr(0,str.length-6); 
console.log(str); //"Button"

var str = "you string with button";
var newstring = str.replace(/button$/i, '');

var original = 'ButtonButton';
var newString = original.replace(/Button$/, '');
// "Button"
