I'd bid 3♥ showing 3+ fit and a good hand. I don't like my shaped, but everything else about it is good.

If I played double as bluecalm, I would choose that. But I'm not bidding 3H on my own here with all those losers, even with all the aces. This is a great hand for defense, bidding on could be turning a plus into a minus if partner has some random 2533 junk. If partner has a better and/or more shapely hand and makes any subsequent noise, of course I will be happy to cooperate but until then I would pass.

Double as optional here, suggesting bidding on with 3 card support but with enough defence to sit a double, seems to work really well. The question is really whether we want to suggest to partner that they bid 3 - I would say probably not.
