No, don't shove.
UTG shorty limping, could be a monster or if he is loose, a Jx is very possible. He's probably not folding smaller pairs either depending on buy-in. He's still to act as well.

Also, your stack is plenty healthy, no reason to take such a marginal spot when you aren't even deathly short.

i think UTG have AA here.
why would a shortstack and bubble play limps other then traping with AA?

You would shove? Why? UTG limper hasn't even acted yet.

He might be a donkey.

I would not push either, and the key I think is that you still have more than 7 BB's if you have to fold/don't win at showdown.

don't shove either. I do make squeezes out the the BB a fair amount of the time, but this doesn't look like a great spot. I'd rather have like 87s or something.

You are talking about preflop, not on flop right?
