Galileo first theorized the idea of inertia; Newton worked further to develop it
into a law.
Actually, Sir Isaac Newton was the one who formally described the concept of inertia in his first law of motion in the 17th century. Galileo did contribute to the understanding of motion and inertia by conducting experiments, but he did not coin the term or formally define it as Newton did.
Galileo
The theory of inertia was first formulated by Sir Isaac Newton in his first law of motion, also known as Newton's first law. Newton proposed that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.
No, Galileo did not discover gravity. The concept of gravity was introduced by Sir Isaac Newton in the 17th century through his theory of universal gravitation. Galileo made significant contributions to the field of physics, particularly in the study of motion and mechanics.
Inertia. Also described in Newton's First law of Motion.

Newton Galileo(coined "inertia")
Inertia. Also described in Newton's First law of Motion.
The term "inertia" was first introduced by Galileo Galilei, an Italian physicist and astronomer, in the 17th century. Galileo's work laid the foundation for Isaac Newton's laws of motion.
The Concept of Inertia is defined in Newton's First law of Motion.
This is because the concept of inertia is introduced in the first law of motion.
Galileo or Newton and maybe even Einstein is recognized as the father of science
Uranus was not discovered by Galileo Galilei. Some of the things that Galileo did discover was that there were four moons around Jupiter and that everything falls at the same speed.
Sir Isaac Newton published a complete description of the concept of inertia in his book "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy" in 1687. This work established the foundation for classical mechanics and introduced the three laws of motion, including the first law which defines the concept of inertia.
