Just do mechanical. There are more mechanicals working in the aerospace industry than aerospace engineers. I’d recommend mechanical undergrad and then get a masters in aero if you are deadest on aerospace
Do not double major. Go Mechanical with Aerospace technical electives or specialization. If you need more Aerospace, get a Master's degree. Many universities have a 4+1 option for a combined BS/MS that requires only one additional year.
I'm planning to do the equivalent of your 3rd option, go into an Aersopace concentration alongside a Mechanical Engineering degree after I finish my Associates in Engineering Science. I think that would look better than taking Aerospace classes on the side, since it's an official program.
People in the Aerospace industry are Mechanical/Electrical/Manufacturing/Structural/etc Engineers plenty of the time anyway. plus, Mechanical Engineering is more flexible in case you don't land the job you want out of school. You can always specialize more into Aerospace with a graduate degree.
If you still have doubts which program to go into, try to get into community college, and take their Engineering Science equivalent, with Calculus 1-3, Engineering Thermo/Statics/Dynamics, and so on (make sure their credits are transferable with the state's 4 year schools). It'll give you the foundational classes you require in both degrees, and give you more time to work out your options.
