Albeit there were many like minded individuals and movements before Mussolini kickstarted his fascist movement, he's the guy who is recognizing as being the father of fascism. His discourse, as Hitler's, was centered in "bringing back the glory" of a former empire, in this case Rome.

So everything about Italian fascism was about Rome, down to the word "fasci". Because of this when he named his stupid salute he named it "Roman".
