You don't mention the platform you play on. On PC I've been using the "custom companions" from Nexus for a long time and I 'm very happy with it. You can create a new companion at any point in the game. You don't have to go to Whithers to start the operation, and have all the character creation options available.

According to the notes there is a "slimmed down" version for mod.io available also.
