That is why in germany words like "Peanut Butter" are not allowed

Do explain...

you can't call something butter that isn't actually butter

They call it butter because one of the definitions of butter is a "soft creamy spread", which would be applicable to peanut butter, hazelnut butter, as well as almond butter.  Nutella is just a brand name of a hazelnut butter.
