I totally agree about THE NEXT DOCTOR guy. He was great! I would have enjoyed a full season of him!

I really like Evelyn. She's a great foil for the Sixth Doctor because
she is old enough and smart enough not to be impressed by him!
Wilfred was a fun companion, but I didn't like him breaking down and
crying at the end. An old dog like him wouldn't cry.
Lady Christina was very cool in her appearance. He doesn't count, but
I also really liked the guy from "The Next Doctor," who would have
made a fantastic actual Doctor, I think!

She was mostly forgettable with Tennant, with the exception of "Doomsday".Amy PondWilfred Mott (Donna's granddad)Lady Christina de Souza (from the "Planet of the Dead" special) - Admittedly she didn't travel in the TARDIS, but she was super-cool and would have been an amazing ongoing companion. I'm glad she got the flying bus.Captain Jack Harkness Rory Williams Martha Jones- As others have said, she had amazing promise in her first episode but it never played out.Mickey Smith River Song - Counting her as a companion is questionable.

There have been around 80 companions in the various Expanded Universe stories (i.e. Big Finish audios and books; Doctor Who Magazine comic strip; original novels by Virgin, BBC, and Telos; other comic strips over the years, and more). Here are two links to lists of expanded universe companions:
