You might look into using ivy or helm for completion. You can turn on ivy-mode, for example and it redfines all the completing-read type functions in Emacs so that it all uses the ivy way to do it. They are kind of similar, but have some different philosophies and key-binding approaches. I found helm first, and liked it, but over time have drifted to ivy for almost everything.
