Nobody could possibly say who invented the omelette. The word is French and came into French from Latin; the ancient Romans undoubtedly found their word for the dish on their travels, rather than inventing it themselves.
Eggs have been cooked this way since before recorded history, from the thin, flat Asian version used as a wrapper for other foods or sliced into strips for stirfries or garnish, to the thick mix of eggs and vegetables cooked around the Mediterranean and further afield, to the fluffy creations of Provence and other parts of France.
Master chefs such as the Frenchman August Escoffier (1846-1935) made an art form of the omelette and described this art beautifully in their writings but, while the great French chefs certainly brought the omelette forward as a sophisticated concept to the world, they cannot be said to have invented it.
Like most if not all simple foods, the concept of the dish goes back to the first pans that were set on the first fires, and its origin can't be traced.

Whats the difference between a frittata and an omelette?
Frittata is a kind of open-faced Italian omelette that can contain cheese, vegetables, or even leftover pasta. Frittate are cooked slowly. Except for the cooking fat, all ingredients are fully mixed with the eggs before cooking starts. An omelette or omelet is a preparation of beaten egg cooked with butter or oil in a frying pan, usually folded around a filling such as cheese, vegetables, meat, or some combination of the above. Gourmet cook Julia Child once described an omelette as soft-cooked scrambled eggs wrapped in an envelope of firmly-cooked scrambled eggs. Traditionally, omelettes are partially cooked on the top side and not flipped prior to folding.
