It was originally Kororareka (Russell) in the Bay of Islands - Where the first main European settlement was.
It was moved to Auckland as this was a growing European settlement (the largest at the time) so better to serve a greater population.
With continued migration, it was shifted to Wellington so that it was more central to the whole country.
